The Pantanal jaguar was proposed as the largest subspecies of jaguar, with the taxonomic name panthera onca palustris (Ameghino, 1888), native to the Pantanal region of South America, besides Argentina,[2][3] before later research failed to find evidence for different subspecies of jaguar.[4] Besides Brazil, the Pantanal forms part of Bolivia and Paraguay, the namesake countries of "Panthera onca boliviensis" and "Panthera onca paraguensis".[2][3][5]
Jaguars from the Pantanal Region are the largest of jaguars, with lengths of about 2.7 m (8.9 ft), average weights of about 100 kg (220 lb), and some individuals weighing more than 135 kg (298 lb).[citation needed]
