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.

PETER

Thank you so much Peter I truly appreciate it. Its a pleasure to contribute to Wildfacts

About pantanal male jaguars overlapping with sumatran tigers, I'd say 15 years ago it would be much less often to see it for obvious reasons but pantanal jags with good prey base like today ( northern pantanal is a good example ) can overlap with sumatran tigers more often than before. Both south and north pantanal male jags today regarding size wise are living their best moments since many many decades ago.
 
About surinam jags If you manage to get the information on them, dont forget to share with us  Lol   We all would appreciate it. I heard a few years ago their body parts have been sought after and traded overseas.  Sad

Regarding the skulls, Leandro Silveira President of Jaguar Conservation Fund (IOP) from Cerrado has many jaguars skulls and skins ( all killed by poachers unfortunately ) in his project including pantanal jags, cerrado jags, caatinga jags... Leandro is a true jaguar specialist and he knows how the whole dynamic in its sorrounding works not only in cerrado but in the whole Brazil not to mention about the other animals. He has some good jags skulls here in Brazil.


This was when Richard Rasmussen (famous brazilian biologist) visited IOP in Cerrado.

Check the skulls and skins at 20:40 min.

 Absolutely, Crawshaw is the man one sits down and learn with. just imagine how many awesome stories/facts he got.

Despite not being fan of estimations Crawshaw would be the guy I'd ask on the weight estimation of the most impressive southern pantanal male jaguar I've seen so far, Colombiano male, He was never weighed as far as I am concerned and the way he dwarfs other males is ridiculous.

Thank you very much, That's a great idea count me in Like   I am sure the results on that table will be marvelous.


Soon there'll be some good stuff coming, I'm gonna be posting a few tables of some brazilian jags captured from 2000 to 2009 including a few Amazon, Cerrado and more than 30 Pantanal jags in addition to another content on the average size of the Cerrado male jaguar and his measurements in details and even comparison to a cerrado Puma. I just need to finish the translations into english. I'll post it soon, stay tuned you all.
