The main objective of the Operation Jaguar Project is the conservation of the Panthera onca species, emphasizing major threats, especially in relation to habitat loss, poaching, and trafficking of its parts. The goals of the Operation Jaguar Project was to achieve greater knowledge about key aspects of the state of the jaguar in Bolivia and the dynamics related to its hunting and trafficking; to achieve greater support and empathy towards the figure of the jaguar and wildlife by authorities, society in general, and international organizations; to support the strengthening of control systems and the judicial body; and to have an impact at the continental and international level, in order to induce or promote more extensive and forceful joint efforts for the protection of the jaguar and achieve a tacit reduction of major threats, especially global trafficking.

Indique cuáles han sido los resultados/logros obtenidos en el marco de las actividades realizadas: 
The results of the investigation show the interconnection between jaguar trafficking and other serious crimes in Bolivia, Ecuador, Peru, and Suriname. In addition, they show how the illegal trade of this species involves various routes from Latin America to China. The investigation reveals that the illegal trafficking of fangs, bones, and other parts of jaguars is linked to other serious crimes such as the sale of tropical wood, illegal gold mining, human trafficking, drug trafficking or money laundering carried out by criminal networks in Latin America and Asia. Researchers have detected two of the most powerful jaguar trafficking networks in Suriname, called “SA1” and “SA18”, which are run by criminals from China. The purpose of the investigation is to reveal the mechanisms and structure of the entire criminal supply chain, with special attention to illegal suppliers of wildlife products, traders, transporters, and sellers in China.
