Jaguars

Jaguars are large, powerful wild cats native to Central and South America. They are part of the big cat family, closely related to tigers and leopards. Jaguars are known for their robust build, with a strong jaw and sharp teeth, making them excellent hunters. They primarily live in dense forests and are skilled at stalking and ambushing prey. Their distinctive yellow coat features black rosettes, helping them blend into their environment. Jaguars play a vital role in maintaining healthy ecosystems by controlling prey populations. They are currently considered near threatened due to habitat loss and poaching.
