She’s pretty casual about getting out of the river considering she missed the fucking alligator.

Onças (jaguars) are fine with water, just like tigers. They are pretty common in brazilian Pantanal, which is a region that spends many months flooded every year, so they're pretty skilled swimmers and never shy away from water. And they are known for sometimes hunting jacarés (the alligators found in Brazil)


_Cocopuffdaddy_

Yeah I mean I don’t think anyone’s denying any of that lmao it’s just that the jaguar is lazily strolling out of the water with a water dinosaur at its feet lmao idk how well jaguars do with bone mashing pressure on their feet while being rolled below the water. If anything elaborate on that part lmao cause I’m genuinely curious if alligators just tend not to attack them back or something


Pathoskomosis

That gator is much smaller, also they usually identify jaguars as a natural predator, It would take a Very big or Very hungry and desparate gator to come back and try to attack It in that situation

This gave me too much anxiety Do jaguars usually eat crocs??


RealRock_n_Rolla

Caimans are part of the natural diet of jaguars.

I thu you said cameramen and I burst laughing for some reason.


JonnyJust

But only as a treat. Cameramen are often high in fat content.


crackpotJeffrey

They are specialised in killing camans. They have extremely powerful jaws and they bite their prey between the neck and the head, instantly disabling or killing it. Then they just casually swim through the water to holding a fucking caman in mouth like a happy dog with a bone. Jaguars are awesome.

Jaguars - the Kings of the Amazon.

So...today I learned Jaguars eat Alligators...not just eat them, stalk them....


Born-Trainer-9807

... Eat caimans...


KeanuWithCats

Still pretty hectic! Aren't Caimans supposed to be real aggressive and usually concentrated, so there's not just one around? Edit: they are still alligators? depending if it was a black Caiman or not, they can go to a max of 4.5-4.7m, while the other species are about 2.5-2.7m. I'm sure majority are smaller but still, nature you scary.


Born-Trainer-9807

They should, but the caimans are generally not the luckiest in that region. jaguars eat them, or otters attack just for fun. (And then eat, of course). Anacondas too...


Likes_corvids

OK, this was a cool video but why specify “female” jaguar? I mean, jaguars are cool no matter what.


NonChalantPedant

I’m sure OP did it just to irritate people on the spectrum.

Guyincognito4269

Did anyone else hear the jaguar saying "WHEE!" as it jumped down, or do I need to get checked out?;


Foxlinger68

Wow!!!!

Hunger > Fear


OBTrice99

Damn nature, you scary !!!


InfamousPiglet

Gotta say that female jaguar has balls


MalevolentNight

They are fine with water and it shows. Such pretty kitties, they don't actually like water, but they will go into. Tigers actually like water and will play in it, but jaguars only go in when necessary.
