Printouts Jaguars are wild cats that live in rain forests , swamps, deserts , and shrubby areas from South and Central America. These solitary felines often have dens in caves.
Jaguars are territorial.
They are very good swimmers. Jaguars are an endangered species due to loss of habitat and over-hunting by man. Jaguars are bigger than leopards , and their dark markings are arranged in a rosette of 4 or 5 spots placed around a central lighter-colored spot. They hunt mammals, reptiles, birds, and eggs, including capybaras, peccaries , tapirs , turtles, and alligators . They often bury their prey after killing it, in order to eat it later.
