- Description:A tourist in the Peruvian jungle, @tapiafernando00, shared a close encounter with a jaguar on February 23rd, 2024. While venturing deeper into the forest, they spotted the jaguar just meters away. The author said: "I always wanted to see the king of the jungle, but not like this. Recently I was walking in the jungle as usual, a normal day. And as I went deeper and deeper, I realized that I was not alone, so I stopped and looked in all directions and managed to observe something behind some bushes just a few meters away from me, it was the mighty Jaguar. I stared into his eyes, waiting for his movement. Suddenly he rushed towards us, we shouted to let him know that we were not afraid of him. The jaguar stopped but immediately changed his mind and jumped on me. Miraculously it didn't give me anything but a few scratches. I thought he would go away but no, he stayed for a couple more minutes (it seemed like hours) until he got bored and turned around and we never saw him again."
