Overview
- The puma, which cameras recorded early Sunday near the Náutico Country Club in El Cazador, was kept outside the grounds after loudspeakers scared it toward open fields.
- Officials say there have been no new confirmed sightings, and a coordinated search and night monitoring continue in nearby vegetated areas and open land.
- Teams from Buenos Aires Province Wildlife, the Rural Police, Escobar’s Civil Defense and Zoonosis units, and Fundación Temaikén are leading a protocol that aims to protect people and avoid harming the animal.
- Flora y Fauna detailed the spot of the videoed pass as the external fence by Unit 615 near Manny Street and the end of Kennedy Avenue, and the country reinforced lighting and surveillance there.
- Specialists note pumas are native, mostly active at night, and tend to avoid people, and they say growth from urban edges into green corridors makes rare encounters like this more likely.
