  • Relaxed, but alert (best larger)<br /> <br /> Jaguar (Panthera onca) on the river bank, Rio Cuiaba, Pantanal, Brazil. <br /> <br /> The Jaguar is the third largest cat in the world and the only one indigenous to the Americas. It is larger and heavier than the African leopard with a more powerful bite that can go through the skull of a caiman. <br /> <br /> Its status is near threatened due to habitat loss and conflicts with ranchers. Jaguar populations in this remote Pantanal region of Brazil are still fairly healthy.<br /> <br /> Other photos of this beautiful animal can be seen here: <a href="http://goo.gl/M1j5Ri">http://goo.gl/M1j5Ri</a><br /> <br /> 29/04/15 <a href="http://www.allenfotowild.com">http://www.allenfotowild.com</a>
