Those front pics a bit far off  I still can see a few patterns tiger-like stripes over his chest and limbs which I can compare with another pic of Balam on the same position, but I will do it with another pic of his right side taken by pckts.

I am gonna leave a single pattern on the center of their bodies circled in red so you guys can compare with his surrounding patterns and spots with ease.

Now focusing on the photos above by keeping an eye on that specific rossete with one spot in the middle circled which is already the same on both jags look closely the surrounding rossettes and spots, you'll see both animal's rossettes perfectly matching as well as his front limbs patterns, note their underbellies spots as well.


Now look without the red circle.

I will now include more pics of Aju to compare with the male of pckts photo to make it more clearer.


This is a kinda similar position. Can you see that rossette with one spot in the middle that I previously circled in red?? its there in the center of his body.

Now since you already know they both the same jaguar. Let's now compare him with Balam himself.

On Balam bellow Pay the attention to his six spots outside rossetes circled in red, use it as a base referrence just like the one I showed above.

With no red circle you already can see those spots on Balam's body by yourselves.

And now try to see if it matches to Aju's body.

Those patterns above don't match at all.

Now regarding the other picture taken by Paulo I already saw he isn't Balam either.


First of all focus on these specific details on Balam.

These pics bellow they look like each other and I get pckts confused them but pay the attention to the ''tiger-like stripes'' of both cats on their right forelimbs, both stripes are placed around the same area however they take ''different directions'' giving away they aren't the same and Balam only got one long tiger stripe on that region whereas the other male ( Aju ) got 3+ very narrow stripes going from his right front limb all the way up his chest which will match and link with the ones on the other side of his right forelimb ( they're the same ). It is clearly possible to see them on pckts pics of him from his front far off.

Paulo photo's male.

Balam.

Also still focusing on the photos above regarding the rest of his body since there's a plant in the front of the middle part of Paulo male's body check their hindquarter patterns they aren't matched either as well as their faces which have already been discussed here so I won't get too in depth on that area.

---

Now to wrap up grab this photo bellow of Aju and bar his front right forelimb due to the water splashing making it blurred to see in details, check his body patterns and compare to that Paulo's male bar the plant in front and note at least the areas you guys can see it will decently match unlike that of Balam's.

Now lets do the same compared to Balam's. Note they won't match at all.

So the male pckts saw is the same as that male Paulo took photo of, its Aju male.


Too bad I could only get those shots of Balam on his right side, Now if you guys got a better zoomed up pic of Balam on his right side it'd be much better and will make my point even clearer.

The side profile shot is much clearer and it's definitely Aju. 
I wonder if Balam was the male we saw dragging the huge Caiman, because he looked even larger than Aju.
Aju is huge btw, much larger than Marley.

@Pckts

Everything you just brought up there I wanted to mention on my explanation post but I didn't because it would be too long and would kinda derail the main point of the post which was showing their differences.

Now since you mentioned I will say now.

First of all I am glad there's another large male in the area and I remember how you said he was really massive.

One more on our ''capture list wish''.

Aju is indeed very large and when I was drawing the red lines to show you guys the differences I noted he got a big chest circumference and now you mention there was an even larger male dragging a caiman carcass... its crazy haha.


@Balam

there are much more males from that area to join that big list. Reply
