The biome Pantanal is characterized by flooded plain areas located in the center western region of Brazil. Pantanal houses a great diversity of animal species, such as jaguars (Panthera onca). In 2020 and 2021, the biome suffered fires of great magnitude threatening these animals that are already listed on the IUCN red list of endangered species. With that being said, this study aimed to evaluate the situation of jaguars rescued by governmental organizations (GO) and non governmental organizations (NGO) during these fires. Data collection was carried out through objective questions related to the capture, treatment and reintegration of the animals. The survey was sent to governmental organizations (GO) and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) through Google Forms®. The information provided by the organizations was developed by searching sites that frequently reported the development of fires and their consequences. 10 completed surveys were obtained, registering a total of 7 different jaguars affected by the fires that occurred in Pantanal in 2020. 5 jaguars were reintroduced to their habitat, 1 is currently being held captive while receiving treatment and 1 died because it didn´t resist the consequences of the fires. There were no records obtained in 2021. This study indicated that the majority of jaguars were reintroduced to their natural habitat after rehabilitation.
