5、d States-Meo border.At the same time, however, the agency ruled that it would not be prudent (慎重的 ) to declare that the jaguar has crital .habitat-a geograph area containing features the species needs to survive-in the United States.Determining an endangered species crital habitat is a first step to

6、ward developing a plan for helping that species recover.D)The 1997 decision not to determine crital habitat for the jaguar was the right one, because even though they cross the border from time to time, jaguars dont occupy any territory in our country-and that probably means the environment here is

7、no longer ideal for them.E)In prehistor times, these beautiful cats inhabited signifant areas of the western United States, but in the past 100 years, there have been few, if any, resident breeding populations here.The last time a female jaguar with a cub ( 幼獸 ) was sighted in this country was in th

8、e early 1900s.F)Two well-intentioned conservation advocacy groups, the Center for Biologal Diversity and Defenders of Wildlife, sued the Fish and Wildlife Serve to change its ruling.Thus in 206, the agency reassessed the situation and again determined that no areas in the United States met the defin

9、ition of crital habitat for the jaguar.Despite occasional sightings, mostly within 40 miles of the Mean border, there were still no data to indate jaguars had taken up residence inside the United States.G ) After this second ruling was made, an Arizona rancher ( 牧場(chǎng)主 ), with support from the state Ga

10、me and Fish Department, set infrared-camera (紅外攝像機(jī) ) traps togather more data, and essentially confirmed the Fish and Wildlife Serves findings.The cameras did capture transient jaguars, including one male jaguar, nk named Macho, B, who roamed the Arizona borderlands for more than a decade.But Macho

11、B, now dead, might have been the sole resident Ameran jaguar, and his etensive travels indated he was not having an easy time surviving in this dry, rugged reon.H) Despite the continued evidence, the two conservation advocacy groups continued to sue the government.arently, they want jaguars to repop

12、ulate the United State seven if jaguars dont wan! to.Last March, a federal distrt judge in Arizona ordered the Fish and Wildlife Serve to revisit its 206 determination on crital habitat.I)The facts havent changed: there is still no area in the United States essential to the conservation of the jagua

13、r.But, having asserted this twe already, the serve, nowunder a new president, has bent to the tiresome litigation (訴訟).On Jan.12, Fish and Wildlife offials, claimed to have evaluated new scientif information that had bee available after the July 206 ruling.They determined that it is now prudent to o

14、int crital habitat for the jaguar in the United States.J)This means that Fish and Wildlife must now also formulate a recovery plan for the jaguar.And since jaguars have not been able to reestablish themselves naturally over the past century, the government will likely have to go to signifant epense

15、to attempt to bring them back-especially if the cats have to be reintroduced.K)So why not do everything we can, at whatever cost, to bring jaguars back into the United States To ben with, the Ameran Southwest is, at best, marnal habitat for the animals.More important, there are better ways to help j

16、aguars.South of our border, from Meo to Argentina, thousands of jaguars live and breed in their true crital habitat.Governments and conservation groups (including the one I head) are already working hard to conserve jaguar populations and connect them to one another through an initiative called the

17、Jaguar Corridor.L).The jaguars that now and then cross into the United States most likely e from the northernmost population of jaguars, in Sonora, Meo.Rather than demand jaguars return to our country, we should help Meo and other jaguar-range countries conserve the animals true habitat itM )The rec

18、ent move by the Fish and Wildlife Serve means that the rare federal funds devoted to protecting wild animals will be wasted on efforts that cannot help save jaguars.It also stands to weaken the Endangered Species Act, because if crital habitat is redefined as any place where a species might ever hav

19、e eisted, and where you or I might want it to eist again, then the door is open for many other sense less efforts to bring back long-lost creatures.N)The Fish and Wildlife offials whose job is to protect the countrys wild animals need to grow a stronger backbone-stk with their orinal, correct decisi
