## Caption

Check out this stunning new video footage of a rare wild ocelot in a Sky Island mountain range in Arizona — the ancestral homelands of the Tohono O’odham Nation. This footage was captured by Center staff using trail cameras in a remote wilderness area.

Fewer than 100 ocelots are thought to remain in the U.S., with the majority residing in southern Texas. #Arizona is home to a small but crucial population, which exists at the northernmost part of the species' range.

Ocelots rely on the intact, interconnected wildlands of the #SkyIslands. These ranges are biologically rich, creating unique ecosystems that support an incredible diversity of plants and animal species including #ocelot, jaguar and black bear.
