Jaguar vs Caiman vs Piranha

This is literally watching the food chain in action! The trophic pyramid was in full flow when the caiman had caught the piranha, but little did it know that it too was being hunted by a Jaguar. Obviously, being chased by a Jaguar isn't great, and while the caiman made a hasty retreat, it left the piranha behind. The Jaguar, ever the optimist, heard the sounds of other piranhas feeing and came back to see what all the fuss was about, only to be gifted the original piranha! What a unique sighting!
Well done to Abbie Martin from the Jaguar ID Project for this amazing sighting, and thanks for the incredible footage! See Abbie's work here:

Wait Pirahna actually get that big? That fish was huge! Thats terrifying!

[@FiveZeroSafaris]

Can't confirm.

[@bkjeong4302]

Some piranhas do get this big, but it’s also that broad-snouted caiman like the one here aren’t that big (which is why jaguars eat them)

No ways! 😱OMG that crocodile is huge!

[@FiveZeroSafaris]

Yes ways. Yes ways indeed.

[@DLIX2DCLI]

Caimans aren't crocodiles. They are closer to alligator and smaller. That caiman was going to be lunch if it hadn't spotted the jaguar.

[@FiveZeroSafaris]

@@DLIX2DCLI But if caiman are crocodilians, and crocodile was used for short, then it would be correct?

[@alvaromillan4018]

Wowwwe.. clever boy

[@FiveZeroSafaris]

Playing smart indeed.

[@MaleOrderBride]

I dont really understand what is happening in this video? Did the crocodile just drop the piranha? Or did the piranha eat the crocodile and then the jaguar got the leftover piranha?!

[@FiveZeroSafaris]

Somewhere between option 1 and 2.

[@deatherutts]

That's how you get a free meal

[@FiveZeroSafaris]

Who said there was no such thing as a free lunch?!

[@melanosuchuspalustris]

Poor caiman just tryna enjoy some food

[@FiveZeroSafaris]

Hate it when my lunch gets interrupted. (More so when it is a jaguar that does the interrupting).
