jaguars have the strongest bite force of all the big cats (panthers), and while most/all panthers go for the throats of their prey, jaguars typically always go for the head, puncturing the brain with their teeth by stabbing through the soft temples
compared to leopards, the big cat that looks alike to a jaguar (often causing confusion, even being called a “cheetah” despite obvious differences), they are stockier and more rotund. the best example of a jaguars natural size - Tank the jaguar! he is not obese or unhealthy, this is what most jaguars should look like. (google him yourself! hes such a cute boi)
the name jaguar translates to “he who kills with one leap,” they are known as the oneshot cats.a direct food source for jaguars are caiman, a cousin of the crocodile! a good cause of their capability of hunting something as fearsome as a caiman comes from their ability to walk on land, climb trees and swim - they are the best swimmers of the big cats! being the top predator of their area code, they can hide their food in the trees, but don’t need to because of a lack of competition, making them truly the king of their jungles.
they also like to chew on specific vines that get them high. stoner cat!!!
I can’t find images of tank the jaguar that showcase his size, so you’ll have to find those on your own - but here is the boi!!!
