What is the jaguar - prey and predator?

Answer 1

They eat practically any large animal, including deer, caimans (crocodilians), tapirs, and peccaries. They will settle for smaller prey, such as monkeys, sloths, and birds, and even fish, frogs, armadillos, mice and pacas.

They will also eat cattle, horses, and dogs, which brings them into conflict with humans.
Jaguars are apex predators and are the top predators of the Pantanal. Only the Black Caiman ties in with the Jaguar. Jaguars eat a whole variety of prey, but their main prey are Tapirs, Capybaras, deer and Peccaries, in which they kill with a skull bite. Other prey includes livestock, armadillos, monkeys, sloths and coatimundis. Occasionally, Jaguars prey on Giant Otters, fish and poultry. Jaguars are known reptile killers as well though and are known to kill anacondas, spectacled caimans and they might even be the only predator of the adult black caiman. Jaguars almost never kill humans though.

Answer 2

Jaguars are members of the cat family, and like all big cats, they are predators. They stalk and hunt smaller or docile animals (usually herbivores) for food, including Gazelles and other types of wild deer, small wild pigs, and the babies of larger animals such as water-buffalo.

Answer 3

Like all non-domestic cats, the jaguar is a predator - it hunts other animals as its means of survival. Considering its speed, its skill as a hunter, and its size, it is doubtful it would, in turn, become prey to some other animal, with the possible exception of a larger or more powerful cat.

Answer 4

Well, the jaguar is an animal with many adaptations to help it survive in it's natural habitat, therefore, this makes the jaguar a predator as it can kill almost any animal smaller or slightly bigger than themselves, it wouldn't be able to kill much animals much bigger than themselves, as they do not travel in packs, so it would be difficult to take them down. Because of their strengths, the only prey towards to jaguars are humans, they use their bones for medicine and their fur for decoration.

Answer 5

Jaguars are the apex predator within their range and have few, if any, predators. Only a very large caiman or very large anaconda might be able to kill and eat a jaguar, although doubtful.

Answer 7

The jaguar is both predator and prey.

It is predator because it feeds on many other organisms but it is prey also because some crocodiles feed on them if they can get it distracted.
