Those are them, good eye! I had completely butchered their identifications back then lol.

Here is a compilation of the dominant males throughout the years in 4 protected areas of the Pantanal and Llanos:

I wish I could've fit Tito in the Porto Jofre compilation, alongside Edno and Balam he was the largest jaguar's I've ever seen from that area. Here are the three brutes, Tito, Balam, Edno:

They are! Take a look at this photo of two youngsters (maybe siblings) confronting what looks like a mature male:

Here are some updates from Porto Joffre from June 2023 involving the dominant males with the most sightings:

Odin, who I think may be the largest male currently in the area. He has become more comfortable around tourists and his recent face wounds suggest he has been active fighting other males.

Bororo still holding strong. He is at the peak of his prime and it's nice to see how muscled and well-fed he became.

Inka, I think he might be Odin's main contender size-wise for the throne in the area, he is massive. He was seen mating with Patricia and feeding on the carcass of a cow that he took away from a female.
By Rodrigo J. Cordini

Here he is next to Patricia who is not a small female by any means:

And of course, the Cuachicqueh coalition (Xingu and Bagua). Here they were seen patrolling together @Ngonya:

Xingu is mighty and has officially reached his prime as well. He definitely seems like the dominant one in the coalition given Bagua is much smaller:

Truly great to see those reports of june. So Oncasafari is active??
Also i hope Bagua and Xingu become more and more notorious around Porto Jofre, hope we get sightings of great feats from this duo.

I'm waiting for the new Jaguar ID Guide to be released to have confirmation on which individuals are still active as well as newer ones that I am not aware of.

The Cuachicqueh coalition is doing amazing and has tons of sightings, they were recently seen sharing a caiman kill as well. Hopefully, we'll record them hunting soon.

Sighting of Xingu today:
