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.
The male I am familiar with is definitely above 130kg.
The male on the cattle carcass I'd give that him 115-125kg.
The male you posted by onçafari I have no idea who he is, Onçafari nowadays don't post the videos regarding jaguars as they used to back in 2014,2015... on their youtube channel anymore, they used to tell about the jaguars dynamics in the area such as Xavier male dethroning Fantasma male, Esperança female teaching her youngs to hunt, Yara female's misterious wound, dynamics of Maned Wolves in southern Pantanal and more...
but nowadays they don't do this anymore and they got many jaguar fights footages last week I watched an interview of Ronaldo Morata and in the background there were tons of footages of jaguars fighting in Refúgio Ecológico caiman ( which is completely normal to happen ) but they don't unveil on their youtube channel anymore (or anywhere else in a looong time).
One of the fight footages during Ronaldo's interview was at night it showed 2 females against 1 and the single outnumbered female was in the middle and fending off both other females on an impressive fighting style.
One of the few things I know on todays dynamics in Refúgio Ecológico caiman is that Magrão (skinny) male took Monteiro's male territory and he vanished.
Prainha,Baleado and Neo male are the jaguars from Refúgio da Ilha Ecolodge it is yet part of southern Pantanal its really amazing the work of Refúgio da Ilha Ecolodge are having nice outcomes, Julia female is one of the most famous jaguars of that area and Neo male is probably the largest male out there.
about Tiago, I will drop a post on the other Jaguar thread.
I'm pretty sure Praínha/Baleado are the same male, look closely at the marks on its forehead. As far as I'm aware there haven't been any captures Ilha Ecolodge but they confirmed with me today that captures will begin this September so I'm very excited about it!
Personally I believe the male from the carcass is 130+, his frame compared to the calf is huge and he looks very stocky.
That carcass a good portion of it has already been eaten so it kinda gets dwarfed, he is a robust male indeed but I think he can definitely get bigger than that and grow more specially with the cattle consumption (which he's already having).
anyways do you know who this male is? I'm curious.
About Prainha/Baleado they could be the same male indeed since in that area people tend to give different names on 1 single animal. I am gonna check this out in details later.
