Learn more about jaguars

The jaguar is the largest feline in the Americas and is known for its powerful bite. They live solitary lives, coming together only to mate. Females raise their young on their own. Their coat ranges from light yellow to reddish-brown with black rosettes; some jaguars are melanistic, resulting in an almost completely black coat with faintly visible rosettes.
