This album features some of my favorite photos and short videos from my trip to the Pantanal in Brazil, the world’s largest tropical wetland. It’s one of the most biodiverse places on earth known for its healthy population of jaguars. The jaguars of the Panantal are the largest in the world, due to their calorie rich diet of mainly caiman and capybara.
