A badly wounded jaguar rests after being rescued from the Negro River near Manaus, . The feline was found swimming, disoriented and weak, by a task force of the Environmental Police Battalion. Examinations revealed the animal had oedema in its eyes and ears and had been shot with a hunting rifle, with more than 30 pellets hitting its face and skull, causing it to lose several teeth.
