The third largest cat after lions and tigers, the jaguar is a robust, powerful animal. While not as nimble a climber as a leopard, they are still capable climbers and show even a greater propensity for aquatic habitats than tigers. These cats also sport among the most powerful bites in proportion to their size of the big cats, with a notable killing method used on smaller animals (though humanoids are notably included) is to bite the back of the head and crack the skull. |
