Researchers believe the animal was in the forest, came out, got lost, and ended up entering the city. "It broke through the gate, my wife heard a noise. I came running to see, thinking it was someone trying to get in or something. When I went to open this door, I saw it there. It came and banged its head against the door, and I ran to the bedroom. It couldn't get in, but it was a scare," resident Jhonatan Bruno Salvador told g1. During the interview, he chose to speak in a whisper, since the jaguar was still in the house's backyard and any noise could startle it.
