For whatever reason, a jaguar mom decided to move her very young cubs (about 6 weeks old) across the Cuiaba River (maybe to avoid a male jaguar or for better hunting). Mom had to help by carrying the cubs in her mouth as she swam across the river.

The cubs did survive the trip across though appear to have been killed several months later by a male jaguar.

The mom, Patricia, was last seen with her cubs Nauru and Yanomami in early October. Then she was seen mating with other males. Sometimes a female jaguar will do this so that the male leaves her cubs alone. But it could also mean than the cubs were killed. One can hope it is the former.

I hope that poor cub didn't drowned, since she was keeping its head underwater, by grabbing it by the neck..

It was alive on the other side, so it did survive.

You don't know why the mother moved her cubs, there could have been a male nearby that was going to kill the cubs (this often happens to jaguar cubs). This is an experienced mom who has been observed for 11 years and has successfully raised at least 6 prior cubs.

The mother probably held the baby by the upper body with the babies face inside her mouth so it can breathe
