Thats amazing... never knew that a gator would be on the menu for a jaguar, I wonder if they eat gator a lot?
Amazing how he immobilized the gator in one bite to the back of the head

Not a croc nor a gator, but their little cousin a caiman. Still wouldn't mess with one, and still impressive of the jag.
As for gators or crocs, I'm guessing unless it's a young one Mr Jag wouldn't be hunting one. They're much larger than caimans.

Crocs tend to be hotter, more aggressive etc. There's also physical diffs, narrower snout etc.
Gators tend to be more passive, happier to sit'n'soak and ignore people, if they're not hungry or horny. Or pestered by people.
Caimans are more like gators, but smaller. Hence cuter.
The third actual separate sub-species is gharials (gavials), which have the long skinny snout.
That help, dom'?

yup, you sound like u know your reptiles!  I should. I've collected gators pretty much my whole life. And by "gators" I mean any crocodilian. I'm non-discriminatory. There's even a couple dragons posing as gators in there. I've everything from stuffed to real-stuffed, from jewelry to crystal to a 4'-long hand-carved wooden rocking 'gator. You name it, I probably have at least one. ***** As for Jags, I wish I could've afforded the used Jag-wag I found online. From half forward, looked like a Jag; from half back, looked like a Ford. ;D >'Kat |

Yep, impressive. A croc can get to 25 ft in length and weigh as much as 3000 lbs.. I think the Jag would never mess with a croc. They take down buffalo. They are nothing for a poor jag to mess with.

I think the jag just knew it was small enough he could probably take it.
Most predators, the critter gets over a certain size and the hunter eyes it going "Gosh, sure wish I could get THAT one but I think I'd end up being dinner instead uh yeah uhn-uh." They've got a pretty good idea what they can handle.
Well, except for youngun's who like all young can be foolish and even stupid in over-rating their skill-level. I've seen Nature eps where the young lion (cheetah/leopard....) goes for some gigantic wildebeest that's like twice the size of everyone in the herd. Wildebeest spanks lion's butt and wanders away laughing.
