For centuries, Indian myths and Hispanic legends have told of a mysterious large wildcat, the Onza, said to inhabit the mountains and jungles of Mexico's Sierra Madre Occidental. Not a jaguar, not a mountain lion, the Onza is considered more elusive and ferocious than either.
This book slays the myths, celebrates the lore, and tells the stories of many explorer's adventures.
