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.

Welcome @Dark Jaguar 
Have you done any safaris through the Pantanal?

The cute brothers Xando & Bororo. Their bond still stands strong. But, most likely, soon they’ll fight over a female and then go separate ways.

I feel bad for this jaguar.

This jaguars was badly bitten in the face, it looks like the tooth marks from another jaguar as they males really fight for their territories.

Great find, he's got some wonderful shots from Patagonia and the Pantanal.
Paulo is going to check his file's to see who this big boy is, he looks huge though.

Edit: It's Adriano! 



Paulo also said this about his weight

When I said that Fernando said Adriano was 130kg Paulo said....

"well, my records from back then was 158Kg. People from Panthera gave me that number. Fernando wasn't  a part of that team yet. But maybe they lied to me"


"I depend on them for that data. I expect it to be accurate…"

Paulo also said he hasn't seen Adriano this season 

Here's a Recovered Adriano from 2017

This is Onçafari's first register of a Melanistic Jag in the Cerrado. Let's celebrate guys.

''We've already identified 7 different Jags ever since we started our recent work at Pousada Trijunção, in the Cerrado. Amongst them there are 2 Melanistic Jags, 1 Adult male and 1 Young female''. ( the one on the photo above is the young female that was seen and registered first ). - onçafari.

I just hope the Jaguar's severely endangered small population of Atlantic Forest increase as well. Angle

Poor Adriano, but I'm sure he'll recover this ASAP. Glad to see this massive boy again. Happy

Hopefully he's still somewhere around the northern section of Pantanal. Let's root for it.

Here are some of the footages of the female melanistic Jaguar from Cerrado along with another spotted Jaguar.

Officially Posted in January this year.




-This gorgeous black jaguar is one of the new jaguars we are monitoring in the Cerrado. We still don't have much information about her, but she was caught a few times on our camera trap footage. We recorded it at Trijunção Lodge BA. -Onçafari

jaguar skull ( and bite force )
creditsLolnçafari




In this video the Onçafaris Project founder Mario Haberfeld interviews Ricardo Boulhosa executive coordinator of the institute Pró-Carnivoros which has partnership with Onçafari. 

MARIO - Ricardo is gonna tell us a bit about these skulls. tell us a little about this one, what animal is this skull? ( he grabs the Puma's skull at 24 secs)

RICARDO - This is a Puma's skull, a very big cat with a nice large opening on it's jaw to allow its preys suffocation and we also got another skull ( he grabs the Jag's skull at 47 secs) which is the Jaguar skull and as you can see its opening capacity is way greater than the Puma's. And also another interesting thing that differs the Jaguar to the Puma is the bite power of a Jaguar which is cosidered the second strongest bite strengh amongst the land carnivores. Packing around 910 KGF of bite power.

MARIO - Which one has the strongest bite?

RICARDO - The strongest is the African Hyena's ( I am sure it's the Spotted one haha ). But from all big cats for example the Jaguar's bite force is stronger than the Lion's and Tiger's which are larger than the Jaguar. Its because if you compare the skulls together ( at 1:33min. side by side skulls ) You'll see that this arch over here that is called Zygomatic Arch is way larger and has a big space and the crest area on top is where the musculature resides that will provoke the snap bite. So since there's way more space ( in the hollow/hole area on the back of the skull ) there's much more muscles filling in the Jaguar's head than on other big cats. ( hence why it's got big rounded heads ).

MARIO - I think its also interesting to mention that due to the tremendous power the Jag's bite has, they can also sometimes kill their prey by biting their necks and even their skulls. I think that unlike the majority of the big cats in Africa such as the Lion and Leopard that kill by suffocating their preys, the Jaguar has other ways to kill.

RICARDO - Exactly and that's one of these characteristics for example the Puma uses the same technique as the Lions and Tigers which is the suffocation/strangle/choke, the Jaguar can also do this technique but one method it utilises to kill Tapirs for example is by cracking and then crushing their skulls base and the Jag can also break very stiff /hard resistant bones as well.

MARIO - Cool, Thank you Ricardo ...(then he wraps up the interview).

Both a Lion and a Tiger have a higher bite force than a Jaguar but the Jaguar possesses the strongest bite force for its size "lb for lb" and the 3rd highest bf amongst all big cats.
