There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Joker was 236 cm long (from the head to the tip of the tail), 76 cm tall, 126 cm of chest circumference, 66 cm of neck circumference
Compared to Almeidas
"The greatest height at the shoulder recorded by us was 32''; the average shoulder height of 29 male Pantanal jaguars came to 26.28'' "The height of a jaguar is a good indication of its size. Another good indication is the girth (circumference) of the body directly behind the shoulders and at the middle of the belly. Largest girth behind the shoulder we have annotated is 43'', but Pantanal males average 40'' and females 36'' "A female who had utterly gorged herself showed the extraordinary girth of 44.5'' around her stomach, a measurement only a few males ever surpass. The record stomach girth, however, belonged to a male whose belly was empty, except for some hair. It went 47"
"The largest head circumference we have recorded is 30.25"; the average for 31 Pantanal males is 27.77", for seventeen Pantanal females 23.82. The largest neck circumference for a male is 27"; the average neck girth of 28 males is 24.93", of 16 females 21.44"
"The largest girth at shoulder of a male went 25.5'', of a female 22''. The average of 30 males 22.23'', of 17 females 18.94''. Several Males showed a forearm girth of 17'', though the average of 30 males is 24.93'', of females 13.65''
Joker vs Almeidas
6" thicker at the chest than Almeidas Largest Jag and 2" larger than the record girth he mentions.
1" Less in the neck than Almeidas Largest Jag
His body Length including his tail is very long.
29" Shoulder height *taller than average but shorter than record height*
Overall Joker is a long Jaguar with a fairly tall shoulder height and a large neck but he is immensely massive in his chest girth.
I'd love to know some of the Northern Panatanal measurements from modern times but I've had no luck as of yet.
I got Shaka's measurements too
Shaka's measurements Shaka's body measured 237 cm in length (head: 37 cm, body: 135, tail: 65) 78cm shoulder height Chest circumference: 108, neck: 64
