I'm going to make confirmations and corrections to what I posted from the Big Game page, all corrections will be made from the "Jaguar Hunting in the Mato Grasso and Bolivia" book, any others will not be changed since I don't have sources to confirm or deny.

262lbs *Correct Info Posted*

Manuel Puig, of Barcelon, Spain, and Zaide made this kill. The weight posted originally was 126kg but actually it was 115kg w/a score of 20''


*This image is copyright of its original author

as stated in post #45, this guy was not 330lbs but he was shot by Ken Vaughn and his score was 20 4/16'' with an estimated weight from Almeida of at least 130kg empty.

mrs. tomas fernandez with a record jaguar ; skull 20 8/16 *Score is correct and the weight was 109kg*


*This image is copyright of its original author

huge male 116kg 255lbs *Inconclusive*
This one is tougher because the Tailless Jaguar shot in Almeidas book was killed by Dr. Winston, of Texas and he's not shown in this picture above.
Jaguars commonly have pieces of their tails missing from Piranhas and sometimes their entire tail so they could be different cats.
Below is the Tailless Jaguar from Almeidas book.

*This image is copyright of its original author

This one had a score of 19 4/16'' and a weight of 100kg w/out a Tail.


*This image is copyright of its original author

Original Claim *131 kg 288 pounds* but most likely this is the same one as the 262lb (119kg) one shot by Mr. and Mrs. John Howell w/a score of 20 1/16''


*This image is copyright of its original author

milton meirelles shot this monster with a skull of 20 2/16 *Correct w/a weight of 113kg*


*This image is copyright of its original author

Claim *monster 127kg jaguar hunted by hector cuellar 279 pounds*
Again this one is more complicated since this image isn't from the book I have and neither are the other gentleman shown in the image above, see the original below.

*This image is copyright of its original author

This one was 118kg w/a score of 20 4/16''


*This image is copyright of its original author

Claim *knut bellinger with monster 257 pounder*
This one also isn't in the book, I'll post the original below, again notice the different individuals shown and different Cat position

*This image is copyright of its original author

This one scored a 20 11/16'' w/a weight of 108kg


*This image is copyright of its original author

That's Tony Almeida checking the weight


*This image is copyright of its original author

This tailless jag being carried by Alexandre and Walter had previously mauled two vaqueros. 


*This image is copyright of its original author

No info posted originally but this one was shot by Georg Nordmann w/a score of 20 2/16'' and a weight of 110kg


*This image is copyright of its original author

No info posted originally but this one is a bit more complicated, the image shown says "Dantas, Joao, Heinz Rahn, and Tony with Heinzi's massive male."
The only person listed above with a cat in the Almeidas book is Heinz Rahn and his cat scored a 19 2/16'' w/a weight of 95kg which leads me to believe this male above isn't the same as Heinz Rahn's male shot since this one looks much larger than that and I doubt Almeida would call a 95kg cat "massive.''
I'll read around later to try and get clarification.


*This image is copyright of its original author

No info posted originally but this one was hunted by Count Alberto Marone Cinzano, Tony, Joao, and Francisco.
It's score was 18 11/16'' with no weight listed but looks large as well, I'll search for more info on this one too. 


*This image is copyright of its original author

This one is unknown for sure but it looks similar to this one below

*This image is copyright of its original author

Score of 19 13/16 weight of 109kg

Here are a few unknown cats which look very large though and you can compare them to the ones above.
