20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Jaguar's feist
We were in Pantanal, on a boat, looking for jaguars. Suddenly I spotted a dead caiman floating near the river edge. I pointed to it. My guide looked and spotted a jaguar hiding in the bush, just a few meters above. So we stopped the boat and waited, hoping that the jaguar would come down. After a while, she did. She got in the water, dragged the caiman back to land, and started eating.
