Aren’t Jaguars far more aggressive than other NA cats?
I remember reading of PH’s encounters while hunting them and noting to myself that they seemed, more than any other cat, to attack first and ask questions afterwards.
These are not your mild-dispositioned pumas.
Tell that to all the relatives of people that have been killed by mountain lions....
Yes.
Some are quite large and very strong.
Mild-dispositioned pumas are an imaginary breed. An old friend had captured a Puma as a cub around 1958, and kept her in his garage, which he had turned into a cage with chain-link fencing across where the door had been. The last time that I saw her, before the state had confiscated her, was in 1969, and at that time she was still nasty and wild to her feeders most of the time.
