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.

This photo was posted before but the person who posted it i believe claimed the jaguar was a female. Except in another frame you can see the its genatalia. Big male jaguar and male cougar (definitely not close to every other male cougar ive seen from this region).
The jag in the first image i posted is a big male, an above avg sized individual
If after seeing this image you still believe that jaguars are of the same size (body mass) than jaguars then you are blind.
Check the massive frame of the jaguar, pumas may be as tall and long but are much more slender, not even close to the might of the Panthera cat.
