Jaguar (captive)
Jaguars have to be my favourite of the big cats, their astounding strength and agility, their mysteriousness, true kings of the jungle. Jaguars have a unique way of killing their prey, unlike other big cats that suffocate their victim, the Jaguar literally crushes their skull. Their bite strength is so good they can easily crush the shells of tortoises and turtles.This one lives in a sanctuary for large predators.
The jaguar is a big cat, a feline in the "Panthera" genus, and is the only "Panthera" species found in the Americas. The jaguar is the third-largest feline after the tiger and the lion, and the largest in the Western Hemisphere. The jaguar's present range extends from Southern United States and Mexico across much of Central America and south to Paraguay and northern Argentina.
