Stories from the Amazon - Jaguar Encounter

During Night 2 of the Amazon expedition we had a jaguar stroll through our camp. This of course was probably because we camped right in the middle of an area that was frequented by plenty of Tapir. I had just gotten into my tent 10 minutes before this and the big cat strolled right by making an roaring growl that literally reverberated through my chest. The entire camp was up in an instant and we did capture some of the now pissed off cat as it made its way back into the jungle. The green color of the video is because we were using night vision scope on the camera.

This is probably my favorite video of the entire trip - check it out. You have to turn up the sound and listen carefully to hear the jaguar as it was circling back around on us in the jungle when we got the video going.
