The Reserve is one of Picuí’s natural heritage sites. Located in the rural area of the municipality, the site is home to springs that form perennial waterholes, which feed small streams and ensure local biodiversity. Its name comes from the historical presence of jaguars in the region, a symbol of the richness of the Caatinga’s native fauna. The area stands out for its scenic beauty, preserved native vegetation, and ecological importance, serving as a natural refuge for species of the region’s flora and fauna. It is also a point of interest for nature trails, scientific research, and environmental education.
