Jaguars are very powerful hunting animals, while the largest specimens can weigh over 100 kg. When they are very hungry they choose sometimes dangerous preys, like alligators.
According to National Geographic, Jaguars are not like the other felines, they do not fear water, in fact they are pretty good swimmers. Rivers can provide food as fish, turtles or caiman-small alligators. They also eat large preys like deer, peccaries and tapirs. Sometimes they prepare ambush, by climbing in trees and jumping on their prey, killing it with one bite.
This rare footage was caught by a tourist on a river safari in Southern Brazil.
