Wildlife photographer Daniel Alarcon set out to create the National Parks of Bolivia book with his wife, Carmen Mateu, but despite their efforts in tracking footprints, they never captured the camera-shy jaguar. Despite placing camera traps and using other gadgets recommended by biologists, five years passed without capturing a photograph of the creature.
Carmen convinced Daniel to make one last attempt at photographing one, in the Kaa Iya del Gran Chaco National Park. More than a week passed without success. But on the 10th day, the photographers received a radio update from a park ranger, telling them there was a male jaguar sighting at the opposite end of the park.
