Earth at Night in Colour — S01E03 — Jaguar Jungle

00:00:18 The night.

00:01:20 Strange creatures brought to life by the darkness.

00:02:32 And enjoying the last warmth of the day is a male

00:03:42 The coming days and nights will test him more than ever before.

00:05:13 They're twice as active at night.

00:06:38 And giving us a window into the night on his river.

00:07:49 But now at night...

00:09:04 Relieved from the pain by the water,

00:10:21 It's just not Juru's night.

00:11:37 The night also draws out winged termites

00:12:56 Juru still hasn't eaten.

00:13:50 and appears to be following the scent of Juru and other males

00:15:04 Luckily for the tapir,

00:16:19 The young couple sit together as if on a first date.

00:18:21 Two evenings later, he remains alone...

00:19:31 Now stronger, he can hunt the river...

00:21:07 even other predators are on the menu.

00:22:54 But against the odds,

00:23:56 but one cat in particular. Juru.

00:24:32 The guides know these cats really well.

00:25:04 Looking around, he's not that alert. He still looks quite sleepy.

00:25:43 It's amazing.

00:26:22 - Oh, wow. - Ah, look at that.

00:27:12 of these secretive big cats.
