The Calakmul Biosphere Reserve, in Mexico's Campeche state, is the home to the largest population of jaguars outside of the Amazon. It was estimated in 1990 that 125 to 180 jaguars reside in Calakmul and a possible 350 more live in the southern state of Chiapas.
According to the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, the jaguar is "near threatened."
