@epaiva do you have idea beside Pantanal in Brazil what are the best national parks and places in Latin America to observe wild jaguars? We just returned with my family from Palo Verde NP in Costa Rica, a lot of crocodiles, monkeys, iguanas, macaws etc, but our local guide told us that due to their nocturnal way of life its almost impossible to see jaguars or other big cats in Costa Rica.

The best place to see them beside Pantanal in Brazil is a big Ranch in Venezuela located in Estado Cojedes 5 hours by car from Caracas named Hato Piñero, I went there but I stayed only 2 days and did not see a Jaguar but according to information I have from researchers it is the best place to see them but you need to tell them that you want to see a Jaguar and you need to go out at night because normally they take out people to see its wildlife two times a day one during the morning and one in the afternoon, I did not go out at night when I stayed there because the expert in finding them was not in the ranch during my stay.

A big Ranch in Venezuela located in Estado Cojedes 5 hours by car from Caracas named Hato Pinero?? It sounds promising. Thanks! I think, maybe I am wrong, its very hard to attract a jaguar in same way as attracting a tiger, lion or leopard - with using a noisy caw, bullock or goat to the tree, since from all big cats jaguar is probably less dependable in big mammals and less interesting in them. Of course if the goat or cow is very close to him - a few hundred meters he will kill it but if the noise is coming from few miles I don't think that jaguar will make such an effort. And actually this method is not very eco-friendly.
Amigo, you are quite lucky guy to see cougars 3 times. I know one forest guy, trapper from Canada, 60 years old who has spent all his life in the wilderness and has seen a cougar only 2 times. Only guaranteed way to see puma in Canada is to use special dogs who chase up the cougar on the tree and you make you photos from close distance. Such an adventure in BC cost 3 000 bucks for 4 days, including hotel and meal.
Probably you know one of the cheapest way to attract a wild cats and any kind of predators in USA and Canada is using a small device called "Rabbit distress call" imitating the screaming of dying rabbit. It costs only 10-20 dollars and can order it by Amazon with your credit card:
https://www.amazon.com/Primos-372-Cotton...dator+call I dont know is this devise suitable for tropical arias and do you have rabbits in Venezuela but for North America its very effective. You just hide behind a tree, blow the device 3-4 times and after 10-15 minutes if you have a predators around they will come. But if a big hungry cougar or jaguar suddenly appear in close distance to you, you can get into trouble. Thats why is preferbly if you have some gun with you for self protection, this device is used mainly by hunters. |
