In Brazil's Pantanal Wetland, farmers are taking creative steps to reduce conflicts with jaguars and foster a peaceful coexistence with these majestic wild cats.
With less than 10 percent of the Pantanal designated as an ecological conservation zone, the vast majority of the land is dedicated to agriculture and livestock husbandry.
The decline in wild prey, coupled with the increase in farm animal populations like cattle and sheep, has led hungry jaguars to prey on livestock, sparking tensions between farmers and the big cats.
