Contrary to popular belief, Ambergris Caye has big cats! The tip of the Caye is separated by a very small channel from mainland Mexico and because of this we have many species you usually don’t find on cayes. Because kitties are such good swimmers, the channel is nothing for them to cross and so it’s not uncommon for them to live secretly amongst us here.

Belize is home to 5 species of wild cats, margay, ocelot, Jaguar, puma, and jaguarundi.
