I never did get to see a jaguar, but I did finally get to see the otters when we visited the Pantanal wetlands in Brazil. Amazing creatures and I particularly loved all the noises that they made.

Is the green one the moth? I was once told how to tell the difference but I've forgotten. Great expose of the jungle and it's inhabitants.
