They are not dwarfs its just that pantanal jags have a much better prey base. So now you are going to base your entire statements in TWO jaguar weights from Peru? And yes, jaguars from Belize are called dwarfs by several people, and not only Pantanal are bigger, also Venezuela jaguars are bigger, even Amazon jaguars are bigger. And captive animals are irrelevant, they depend of how are rised by humans, in that case even a leopard can be bigger than the biggest jaguar (been incredible fat of course), so I don't see the point on this. As @Pckts says, I can see from a mille that you are biased in favor of pumas, and trying to discard the Pantanal population shows that. Well, let's check the jaguars from Venezuela, equally larger, no excuses from your part this time. And none of what you showed here proved that pumas weighed the same as jaguars, for the contrary, we showed here that you will need an exceptionaly small jaguar population to compare it with a similar sized population of pumas (with better prey base) to reach them at the same size. Even when they have the same average prey base, you completelly ignored with I told you, you also need to know the frecuency of hunting, a puma killing a large deer every 4 days will eat more than a jaguar eating an armadillo per day. Again, your same images showed that even when the puma can be as long and tall as a jaguar, there are not even near to the same body mass, robustness and skull size. Jaguars are another tier, that is for sure and even with similar prey base, jaguar always are bigger, there is no discussion here. No expert is going to tell you something else. |
