This is the same big male Jaguar as the last image.  He gave us all a big yawn before he got up to go for his evening hunt.  Due to the low light I had switched to a 300F2.8 at this point and I'm glad I did as I am not sure I would have had the shutter speed to make this image otherwise.

The low light makes this one Nate - when viewed in the shadowbox it comes to life! Nice composition with the head off center, and killer pose with the mouth wide open! This guy looks very healthy.

This is such a relaxed cat! So at ease in his natural environment.
