Hidden cameras are all very well, but scientists at the “Wildlife Conservation Society's Jaguar Conservation Program” in Guatemala has one more trick to attract jaguars.

Stayed longer in cameras
The discovery that a great Obsession for Men was a jaguar magnet was made during an experiment at the Bronx Zoo in New York. The staff wanted to find a way to film the cheetahs and after several years of perfume intercepting discovered that just Obsession cats got to stay longer in cameras than other scents.
