And look, the jaguar tried all possible ways, running from side to side, but to no avail. At the end of the video, filmed in the Pantanal of Mato Grosso, the result could not have been different.

Despite the feline’s insistence, the hedgehog dad, like his mom, coped with his role well, forming an invincible duet. The jaguar abandoned the attempt, taking away some gifts stuck in his muzzle.
