Modern Weights and Measurements of Jaguars

[Dark Jaguar]

I am gonna make a few adjustments to the pantanal males table.

I got confirmation by Tortato, Juru was not captured yet.

3 jaguars shall be removed.

2 jaguars name shall be corrected.

A few jaguars shall be moved to the south area.

@Balam Juru shall be removed from the table, M&M and the unknown 134 kg male sourced by Moreira too, as I already suspected they are all Matheus Manco, thats what M&M or MM stands for and he was captured 3 times and also check the patterns on their rossetes, they're all the same animal.

Matheus Manco 1st capture - February 2018.


Onças do Rio Negro official post on Matheus Manco first capture Capture.

'' Last night 13/2 (February 13th) we captured another jaguar. This time it was a male of 134 kg and with approximately 4 years old, who was baptized Matheus. This animal was already being monitored by the project's trap cameras. Everything indicates that this animal took over the aerial life of the nostalgic Sossego male! He is now equipped with a Lotek/Iridium collar with automatic release system. For 12 months we will receive its location every hour. This information will be very important to know a little more about the ecology of the jaguar in the region.''

We especially thank our friend Flavia who bought the collar and also Leanes and Hemerson who even with the reduced team gave super account of the work!!!''

Matheus Manco 2nd capture - July 2018.

First of all yes he was recaptured after 5 months.

Here they finally shows what ''M&M'' stands for.

Onças do Rio Negro.

''Capture of the male "M&M" (Matheus Manco) - to change necklace and exams. Weight 121 kg ''

Thats why there's a M&M male in the table which is him.

Capture Preparations.

''We are in capture week at Rio Negro, Pantanal - MS. The idea of the capture is to put on the necklace in a "new" jaguar or change, replace the necklace of some already monitored.

This is the case of the MM male, which has already been captured twice (the last one in July 2018). The necklace, besides the camera-traps, gives us an idea about the size of the territory and with it we can monitor the habits of the animals.

In addition, it has a remote signal of death of the animal which allows us to know quickly if something has occurred.
After 12 months the necklace automatically falls off the animal's neck without the need for recapture.

We use the "loop on paw" method of capture, the same adopted by Onçafari.''


This 3rd capture Matheus Manco looks thin and his weight wasn't mentioned here.

''Excellent team is like that... Mission given, mission accomplished!!!

Congratulations to our team for the success in the recapture of the MM jaguar. Now we can monitor the animal for another year!!!''

Matheus Manco third capture posted by Maitê

Lets keep in the table his first capture of 134 kg and something that is also to be icluded in the table is Matheus Manco's age, he was about 4 years old when first captured back in February 2018.

Also those pantanal jaguars sourced by Furtado are the ones Leandro and IOP captured in the 2000's in Pantanal. Mariana Furtado works with IOP, those jaguars were captured in Refúgio Ecológico Caiman and Fazenda Barranco Alto - South Pantanal and as we already know, it was between October 2003 and November 2008.

So add those ''Furtado sourced jaguars'' to the South Pantanal area.

And lastly I'd like you to take advantage while making these adjustments and could you correct the names of 2 jaguars in the table, the one of 115 kg named Scare, change its name into his official name in portuguese which is ''Susto''. and lastly the young male of 100 kg name, Its ''Santi''.

After all these adjustments get done, let me know cause I am gonna further post in tables 15 wild Pantanal jaguars from the 3 Pantanal areas (North/Central/South) and 9 of them will join the table in 2 different further posts. It also includes a few captive ones.

But only after these adjustments and corrections are all done for you not to get too overloaded with much to do at once. Reply
