Publisher's Synopsis
The Jaguar is a very powerful cat. The very term Jaguar, or Yaguar in the native tongue, literally means, 'he that kills with one leap.'And indeed, with a single leap and a crushing bite to the head, the jaguar is able to kill its prey. Jaguars are the largest cats in the Americas. They look exactly like leopards except for some minor differences. To be able to tell one from the other you just need to look at the rosette patterns on their fur. Although no two jaguars have the same rosette pattern, all jaguars have a spot in the middle of the rosette, while leopards have none. In this book you will learn many amazing facts about the jaguar. Learn about their ways, what they eat, how they hunt and kill their prey. Learn about their social life, how they care for their young, and how they protect their territories. This book also contains more than 20 colorful pictures of the jaguar in its natural habitat. A picture of this animal will make you understand why people see them as a symbol of royalty, strength, and beauty.
