An extensive Bibliography on the Jaguar
1999  Full Book

This bibliography is extensive, but not definitive. In addition to scientific literature, we include unpublished reports, popular articles, and even some field guides where they seem to contribute new information or represent old information no longer well recognized. Our primary interest is in jaguar (_Panthera onca_) biology, life history, and management. We include literature from such other disciplines as veterinary medicine, behavioral science, zoo management, archaeology, and anthropology, although in the areas more peripheral to biology we may have missed much. We tried to screen out fiction, although in one case, we purposely included a fictionalised biography that includes extensive treatment of jaguar hunting. We gathered the information by directed searches (by hand and by computer) of library catalogs and databases, by examining the citations of selected publications, by browsing among library shelves, by incorporating another existing bibliography from the Arizona Game and Fish Department (by Raul Valdez and William E. Van Pelt), and by somewhat random excursions into the literature of related disciplines.
