    Jaguars eat weird things! In Honduras, our camera traps caught a jaguar feasting on something truly unusual — a marine dolphin. Exactly how did a jaguar manage to get its paws on an ocean creature? Read our blog about this hearty and unexpected meal: bit.ly/3Su4ePL

    Return of the #weasels! Sometimes called the “aquatic jaguar” by locals in the Brazilian #Pantanal, giant river #otters are protective of what’s theirs. They have no qualms about telling #jaguars to back off—even if it means staging a mob! panthera.org/earthday

    This is one of the most incredible things you could ever see on camera trap! Watch this video of a #jaguar family running around and playing in the Brazil! In this country, we are studying how the Pantanal's big cats can coexist with livestock. What's your favorite Brazilian cat?

    #TIL: Snow leopard tails are proportionately the longest of any felid, being between 75-90% of the head-body length! It’s #InternationalSnowLeopardDay! #SaveSnowLeopards

    Today’s #SelfieSunday is something unique; a “strawberry leopard” from the Kaingo Game Reserve in #SouthAfrica. This male #leopard was photographed last year and scientists believe that he may be the same individual captured on a camera trap nine years ago as a cub.

    Happy #SelfieSunday! Remember this camera trap footage of a #puma family from this year? It was just one piece of evidence that our conservation efforts are working! Give more hope for the holidays and ensure a future for all wild cats at bit.ly/2B0j35u. #actforcats

    Winter is here so here’s an adorable #puma kitten playing in the #snow for today's #FBF. Pumas reach adulthood around 18 months of age, leaving their mothers around that time to strike out on their own. Join us to #ActforCats before the year is over: bit.ly/2SedvvO
