@epaiva :
About #91: Amazing ! Although the two jaguars sisters didn't seem very determined (just curious perhaps...), the group cohesion among otters prevails.

So now natgeo not only uses youtube's style titles to sensationalize and exaggerate things, they even added dumb music and score cards to the clip. Fantastic. But after that "award winning" fiasco piece about cheetahs from a few years back it isn't surprising.

Interesting. Given its power and killing technique, the jaguar might have been more efficient at killing apes than leopards themselves.

@epaiva
Do you have more info on any of this?
This excerpt is from the Carnivores of the World Princeton field guide. Jaguars preying on botos.

Next three excerpts are from the Enciclopedia Salvat de la Fauna (1980):

Claim of jaguars killing manatees in the water of up to 500 kg.

Claim that jaguars sometimes hoist peccary up a tree like leopards to avoid being mobbed by the rest of the group.

This one is no doubt more anecdotal, but interesting. W.L. Schurz, in his book The Infinite Country, claims jaguars can influence red howler monkeys to get down from trees to be catched.

Jaguars preying on dogs in Brazil. Notice how in both instances the dogs approach the jaguar, basically offering themselves to be catched.

Jungle cat, a 1960 documentary produced by Disney had great footage of jaguars from the Amazon. I couldn't find it complete, but here are the highlights:
Melanistic jaguar preying on green anaconda.
Melanistic jaguar preying on black caiman.
And the first 45 minutes of the documentary (25 minutes missing). Minute 27:14 catching giant pirarucu, 33:00 chasing tapirs, 34:04 pair hunting tough collared peccary, 38:53 interaction with giant anteater.
RE: Jaguar Predation - Smilodon-Rex - 07-11-2018
Does everyone can post the jaguar attacks caiman skeleton pictures?
RE: Jaguar Predation - Shir Babr - 07-12-2018

An egret flew too low into the jaguar's enclosure (0:48).
Edit: Don't know what's wrong with the preview but it refuses to work, so here's the link:
