Who Are We?

The Black Jaguar-White Tiger™ Foundation was inspired by a single unexpected act of Love, and a whole lot of trust and Magic.

Eduardo Serio, a Mexican born businessman who was residing in Los Angeles, went on a business trip to Monterrey, Mexico, in October of 2013. There, he realized that his life will never be the same: While in Monterrey, he received a call from his cousin, an Animal expert with over 25 years of experience, sharing his frustration that a pet store was trying to acquire a baby Black Jaguar with the purpose of drugging her to have her pose for photographs as a source of income. Eduardo got super angry and as he refers to “Grabbed the cubic centimeter of luck” that manifested in front of his eyes and ended up rescuing Cielo, a baby Panther from a certain life of captivity and probable death, leaving his whole life in Beverly Hills behind. He called his then girlfriend at the time and told her “To pack some things because they were moving to Mexico”. Eduardo didn’t return to his house or his friends in LA for the next 20 months. Till today, his clothes, furniture and wine cellar are in warehouses and his cars and house have been sold. That single event of Love gave birth to what today is The Black Jaguar-White Tiger™ Foundation.

Currently, with the help of devoted friends and millions of loyal followers around the world, the Foundation has rescued and cares for over 295 (And counting) Big Felines including Lions, Jaguars, Tigers, Leopards, Lynxes, Pumas and Servals from a life of abuse in circuses, zoos and breeders, both legal and illegal ones. The Foundation has also rescued more than 60 Dogs, mostly from the street.

The foundation has a project currently going on together with the Mexican Government SEMARNAT & PROFEPA (See below) to reproduce, reintroduce and repopulate endangered species of Birds and Felines endemic to Mexico, into their natural habitat . We have not formally announced it yet but the program is incredible and already giving great results. More on this later…
