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.

I managed to ID this male through his forelimbs and I figured out he is the same as the one I already posted a while ago. For those who don't remember He is included on a Jaguar study along with another Porto Primavera male of 112 kg also captured and measured by Crawshaw.

On the study it includes his body length measurements.

This male of 8 years old weighing 122 kg, he measured 56 cm on tail length and measured 151 cm in total.


Watch the brief 39 secs video of his news on TV that aired in the 90's here.

'' The animal was found at river banks of the Paraná river its an 8 years old male with 122 kg and over 2 meters long. The Jaguar was captured and anesthesed by Peter Crawshaw's team, The technicians collect many infos and datas and put on a collar with radio transmitter. Through the collar signal they will follow the Jaguar steps and get to know the feeding habits, the datas will be used as infos to the Environmental Impact Report of the Hydroelectric of Porto Primavera. ''







He is a very robust and thick male.
