We're not comparing which population is larger on this subject we're just finding each areas prey base is enough to see if they can grow to large extant.

Horses are fast as hell for sure but if a determined large Llanos male jaguar get hold of one through ambush I am sure it can westle it down through brute force and get the job done imo, they most likely avoid preying horses but it wouldn't surprise me if I run into horses predation case even if 2-3 cases, these jags surprise every single day .

Not only are horses fast but they are smart and very aggressive.
If you hear people discuss Zebra in Africa they always say that the Zebra are much harder to prey on for Lions than Wildebeest. And this is for numerous reasons, 1st being that Zebra are very away and smart, they always say Wildebeest are "dumb", 2nd is the aggressive nature of Zebras, they are very tough fighters when pushed to a corner and Lions will have a tough time killing them if the Zebra is in a possession to fight back.
Which is why I'm putting horses in that same category as Zebra and not to mention that Horses, depending on the breed can be even larger than Zebra are.
But certainly if a determined, big male Jag gets a hold of a Horse, it has the ability to kill it. Reply
