Rare Amazonian Short Eared Dog Caught on Camera

A camera trap being used to survey jaguar populations in the Ecuadorian Amazon rain forest has captured a photo of the rare short-eared dog.

Researchers from the Wildlife Conservation Society have set up heat-sensing cameras to capture shots of the jungle-dwelling carnivores and has captured 75 new jaguar pictures since 2007.

As well as jaguars and the short-eared dog, the cameras have also captured images of a heard of piglike white-lipped peccaries.

In the late 80s I started investigating UFOs and crop circles and joined the CCCS (Centre for Crop Circle Studies) and a local group researching strange sightings and reports along the south coast of Dorset (UK). In the early ’90s I started my own research group called SPS (Strange Phenomena Studies), this was renamed in 2004 to Cryptoworld.
