[Dark Jaguar]

137 kg Robusto male almost got in trouble

Very interesting case considering that big group of peccaries have killed jaguars before.

As Leandro Silveira once said ''These animals in big group are really a Bee Swarm.''

''Yesterday I saw an unusual scene to see here at @caimanpantanal: a male jaguar at the top of a tree. This behavior is most commonly observed in females, and size and weight may be factors that somewhat limit males from climbing trees more often. However, what motivated Robusto to climb was a large group of white-lipped peccaries, a species of wild "pig" with very aggressive behavior that can corner or even seriously injure a jaguar. When a jaguar notices the presence of many peccaries nearby, they usually run away or climb trees.''
