My friends at catexpeditions.com put out a short video recap of our recent jaguar trip to the Pantanal. If you want to know what its like to take a trip to see these cats, check out the video. The rest of the videos on their channel are great as well, including the episode on looking for the Chinese Mountain Cat they just released yesterday.

Mapping Flood Agents In The Northern Pantanal Wetland Using Multiple Spatio-Temporal GIS And Remote Sensing Techniques

“Combining MODIS data, TRMM, river discharge, a digital terrain model, and multinomial logistic regression, [the authors] identified three predominant classes of flood origin: local rainfall, bank overflow, and mixed areas. The model achieved a Nagelkerke Pseudo-R² of 0.63 and a classification accuracy of up to 81.2% (10-fold cross-validation). To the best of [their] knowledge, this is the first explicit approach to mapping flood agents for this wetland, a component that has historically remained unmapped despite its recognized influence on habitats and biodiversity…”

“The mapping of functional hydrologic units is crucial for enhancing our understanding of flooding and hydroecological processes in large wetlands. These units are typically defined by flooding frequency, duration, and magnitude, but another important hydrologic characteristic is the origin of flooding, known as the flood agent. This study presents an empirical framework utilizing remote sensing and GIS procedures for modeling flood agents in the northern Pantanal wetland. Eleven spatial data layers were derived from multi-year MODIS flood maps, daily rainfall estimates from the TRMM 3B42 grid, in situ discharge data, the BEST Digital Terrain Model, and a hydrographic network layer. These layers were tested for their predictive power in a multinomial logistic regression mapping model. Model performance metrics, along with qualitative validation of mapping outcomes using in situ flooding measurements, and vegetation and soil data from field test sites, support the plausibility of the proposed mapping scheme. However, they also highlight the challenges of flood agent mapping in large tropical wetlands…”

We were following this big brute of a male until the sun was starting to go down, and I caught him here lying next to some really interesting light hitting some trees behind him. Almost looks like fire.

I often get accused of not being a birder because I'm fanatically on "team cat". Now, I will admit that birds are not my prime focus, and if there's a wild cat anywhere in the vicinity, birds will entirely disappear from my eyesight. But I do like and photograph birds, honest.

My mind was mostly on the jaguars during my recent Pantanal trip, but I did occasionally pause to enjoy the myriad other amazing critters.

I've been home from Brazil for only two days now, and I'm already missing it. I was born to live among the wildlife, and not the concrete and asphalt.

Alas, I'm nearing the end of my jaguar trip to the Pantanal. It's been an extraordinary and exhausting two weeks and I've loved every single minute. Back to the city tomorrow, and then off on my flight back to the States.
This is the second trip I've taken with Sebastian and Rachel at catexpeditions.com and I've already booked them again for pumas in Patagonia this coming November. Can't speak highly enough of them.

During massive wildfires in the area in a few years ago, researchers saw the jaguars using the culverts under the roads for shelter against the fires. They subsequently convinced the local ranchers to put more culverts in just for the jaguars. The cats now use the culverts even just for shade in the middle of the day.

CW: Jaguar with dead animal
This amazing cat, after jumping from a tree and nailing this caiman bigger than she is, wrestled its dead body to the bank before going back a half a mile or so to get her cubs to share in the meal. The power and stamina of these jaguars is just unbelievable.

We were lucky to be able to watch a hunt yesterday. This big girl named Masala was hunting caimans in the river from up in the trees. Incredibly exciting to see her ply her trade. She was so blazingly fast what she took off, I'm surprised I got that shot. And yes, she got the caiman.

Over on #BlueSky (are you there? If so, I'm @janetomlinson.bsky.social - follow me & I'll follow you back) for today's #BlueSkyArtShow, I'm showing my #painting "Spirits of the Forest" . Just two #ocelots climbing on vines. What a privilege it was to see these cats living wild & free in the #Pantanal, #Brazil!
