Maned Wolf in Brazil

Where are maned wolfs in Brazil? The strongest odds are at Pantanal, where access and habitat beat a chance roadside glimpse.

Pantanal in Mato Grosso do Sul is the place to begin. The world's largest tropical wetland, with capybaras, jaguars, hyacinth macaws, and giant otters in open savanna. Give yourself quiet time at dawn or dusk and keep your distance.

Brazil context: Capybaras in the Pantanal, jaguars on the riverbank, and the lungs of the Earth in the Amazon.

In Brazil, look especially around cerrado, grassland, and marsh edge. Those settings usually put you closest to where this species is active.
