Much of the wildlife of Runaway creek are sneaky and rarely seen by humans, but occasionally, we get a peek into their lives thanks to amazing trail camera technology. Runaway Creek has several trail cameras strategically placed around the reserve to try and capture what the human eye cannot. On May 5, one of our cameras got quite a show! A familiar jaguar spent 9 hours and 3 minutes setting off a camera several times.
