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.

Modern Weights and Measurements of Jaguars

@Pckts i completely agree with you, many biologists have described jaguars as looking "pregnant" due to their wide, barrel shape body morphology. A gorged jaguar (or any big cat for that matter) will present a protuberance in its mid section, not just a lower belly, like this:

This is also why we know López was either empty or with very little stomach content as his mid-section was flat, which was what Guy Balme said in the video (not fat like a certain individual suggested).

For Sandro is clear that he has a decent amount of stomach content, but he isn't gorged. I think 7 kg may be accurate.
