From the videographer:

>Today I had the chance to see Saseka hunting at the Encontro das Águas State Park, in the Jofre region.

>I must admit, throughout my journey in the Pantanal, she has never been a jaguar that caught my attention. Compared to names like Patrícia, Medrosa, or Marcela, or males like Bororo and Ousado, I always saw Saseka as a more low-profile individual.

>But today, my perspective on her completely changed. I witnessed Saseka hunting and killing a male caiman…an animal that was clearly twice her size in weight and stature. It was the work of a true warrior: it took her nearly an hour to drag the prey into the bush. Her exhaustion was visible, but she didn’t give up for a single moment.

>Saseka taught me a valuable lesson today: never underestimate anyone. She proved her strength and determination in a way I never would have imagined.

Guests encounter a humongous male jaguar crossing through the property. They observed him on foot without any issues. Jaguars do not attack people unless they feel directly threatened. Not even massive males like this one.
