Ibaca  was the very first jaguar I encountered - we had been out on my first morning for a while and then all of a sudden she was there, resting in a tree high up above our boat looking down at us. I will never forget it! We were alone with her for quite some time until she eventually decided to get down from the tree and start walking along the water. We followed her until she disappeared from our eyesight. Her intensive look, her elegance (she seemed like a contortionist or acrobat up there in the tree!), her grace and generosity in allowing us to spend so much time with her have stayed with me since then.
