A jaguar sniffs around a feisty giant otter’s den in the Brazilian Pantanal--and is met with scorn. Then, another jaguar often seen by Panthera’s scientists along the São Lourenço River in the same region tries to catch some rays on a tree branch near a den full of giant otter pups. A group of frenzied adult otters, uninterested in sharing their favorite eating spot and home base, alert their dominant male and storm the big cat from the water.
The intimidation tactics work: The jaguar flicks her tail in fear and performs a semi-somersault to turn around and flee the angry mob of otters.
Incredible scenes like this were almost unthinkable only a decade ago, as both species were heavily persecuted in this part of Brazil and didn’t let people observe their interactions. We’re excited to now bear witness as biodiversity booms in this region.
