Based on all the new recent jaguar data, I decided to make a comparison between Pantanal jaguar and its closest felid relative in size, the Sumatran tiger, as both animals are often compared between one and other. The data for Sumatran tigers is more scarce and less updated, nonetheless what we do have of them is decent enough to provide measurements:

"Yesterday I posted a photo fusion from a camera trap and thought I would share one more. All 4 of these animals walked the same ground in the same location at different times and were caught by the same camera trap! This was in one of the most diverse areas on the planet in"

Rogério wild Cerrado male jaguar's Pugmarks

Leandro Silveira

Pugmarks found in front of Xavante male's enclosure.


Rogério is now every day patrolling the enclosures because of Pandora captive female who's in heat and as I expected to happen soon Ariane wild cerrado female has already been noticed along with her cubs close to the area.

Just for the sake of comparison, here's how the skulls of an equivalently sized Sarkastodon and Eustreptospondylus stack up, both of them being jaw based predators. The difference in skull size is quite surprising, especially considering they would have hunted similarly tough prey in a similar fashion.

@Balam In case you didn't know

You know that Dark Jaguar got kicked out of that team right?

His name was ''Nigger'' and being a jaguar which normally are too reluctant to ''obey'' human orders the same way as tigers and lions do, he was a headache ''to do what he was told to'' to the point they removed him from the big cats group of the Circus.

''This is Mable Stark with her "world famous, first time ever, never before seen" black Jaguar. From accounts he made a limited appearance at Madison Square Garden, and wasn't used much after that. His name was the terrible, demeaning, racist, "N" word!!!! And it is printed in it entirety in any material on the subject of Mable Stark. Those are two of her "jungle killer Sumatran tigers. The group exhibiting an "incredible" behavior, which I am "assuming" took many, many, many months of careful "training" to accomplish. ''


Personally I like this very reluctant behavior of jaguars to not follow humans orders as much as what is expected for whoever is trying to tame/dominate them.  Huh
