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.

Those who wrote wild jaguars have little experience with humans could have a point. Captive jaguars, however, have and they, judging from the number of accidents, don't seem to enjoy it very much.

I interviewed about 10 trainers, maybe more. The trainer I remember most was the one who performed with jaguars. His males, although quite a bit smaller than lions and tigers, were impressive animals. They didn't care one bit about humans. He didn't need to tell me he was very wary of them, as I saw it right away. Of all trainers I interviewed, he was the most troubled. With good reason, he told me. I hope he is alive and well.

I agree with Rabinowitz that the jaguar is very jaguarlike, meaning they live in their own world. Maybe they compare to polar bears. Polars, with good reason, are considered as very dangerous, but when they like you, you never have to be worried. Jaguars have a bad reputation, but it seems they are able and willing to connect to some humans. If they do, accidents will not happen.
