I did not realize that Jaguars were bigger than mountain lions. My sister in law has a house in Montana that is located in a grizzley bear preserve. She has 12 acres out in the country with neighbors scattered around. The Grizzles, black bears and mountain lions come through her property regularly, so far no one has been killed.

It isn't just that they can get bigger than mountain lions, the point is their attitude. They kill and eat everything though for obvious reasons they like bigger game. You don't think mountain lions and real lions or leopards or tigers are alike do you? The jaguar belongs to that same genus, and acts like it does. It is a solitary hunter which is a good thing for its prey. It doesn't congregate or cooperatively hunt like lions. It is bigger than leopards in general but smaller than lions or tigers.
