I'm assuming you are using a translation engines ass your post refered to 
some cats as ounces (oncillas?). Cats are all the felidae and the largest in 
the rain forest (not really a jungle) are the jaguars, not the ocelots. 
Ocelots may be on the largest of the felinae in the majority of the 
Amazonian Basin Brazil, but not all of Amazonian Brazil. There are pumas and 
jaguarundi (tigrillos negros)  in some rain forest parts of southern Brazil 
as well and they are felinae as well, so the ocelot would loose to them in 
size as well.

Mammals - *Jaguatirica* - Leopardus pardalis
They are the biggest cats-the-jungle of Brazil.
