- Like lions, jaguars can't sustain high speeds and depend on getting close to prey for successful kills.
|
|
- Normally solitary animals, male and female jaguars stay together for a few weeks when breeding.
|
|
- Although not quite as graceful and agile as the leopard, the jaguar climbs trees, often in wait for its prey. Although it can climb, jaguars are much happier hunting at ground level and in water.
|
|
- Jaguars are the largest and most powerful of the American members of the cat family.
|
|
|
- Jaguars are found from the southern United States to northern Argentina.
|
- A mature jaguar is 112 to 185 cm (44 to 73 in) long, not including the tail.
