Abstract
⺠We analyzed the factors that affect jaguar persistence in the Atlantic Forest. ⺠Two dimensions defined by management criteria were used for habitat modeling. ⺠Only 8% of the Upper Paraná Atlantic Forest constitutes core areas for jaguars. ⺠Reduction of human persecution is needed to enlarge the core areas. ⺠Better land-cover conditions are also needed for the connectivity among populations.
