Male jaguar (Panthera onca), Pantanal, Brazil. Near threatened (IUCN, 2018). This seems to be an older male. Massive head, lots of scars, also some new wounds (e.g. small pieces of skin missing on left flank). This male was mate guarding female jaguar. This was the same male and female we saw earlier that day in the daylight.
