American Jaguar

Panthera onca

Maya

Maya no longer suffers in cramped conditions

We rescued Maya, our jaguar girl, as a 3-year-old from a private owner, with whom she lived in very cramped and unsuitable conditions. It was agony for a beast that needs movement. Beasts do not belong in the hands of private individuals, as they cannot create sufficiently suitable conditions for them. In Malkia Park, we are trying to create at least better conditions for her, she has a significantly larger enclosure with a pond. Jaguars love water, and they can only enjoy it here.
