Video of Jaguar Attacking Caiman Crocodile

A stunned caiman crocodile gets the shock of it’s life as a Jaguar explodes out of the river and attacks it. The 20-stone jaguar sinks its sharp teeth into the eight-foot reptile before dragging it back across the water and into the jungle. The unbelievable kill sequence was captured by videographer Sally Eagle in the Pantanal Wetlands of Brazil.

It is unusual for any animal to attack a caiman crocodile but there have been previous records of big cats and big snakes attacking and eating them. Anaconda’s have been cut open to reveal a dead caiman inside it’s belly.
