Jaguar

Distributed throughout much of Latin America, the jaguar is found in tropical forests, savannas, and swampy areas, with significant populations in the Amazon and Pantanal.

The jaguar is a solitary animal, except during mating season. It is territorial and an excellent swimmer, frequently seen near rivers and lakes. It hunts mainly at dusk and at night.

The jaguar is the largest feline in the Americas, with a robust body, broad head, and powerful jaws. Its coat is yellow with black rosette-shaped spots that vary in size and shape. It can weigh up to 150 kg and measure up to 2.4 meters in length, including the tail.
