Now You See Me, Now You Don’t

The directors of the Hunters of the Wildlife are seeking nominees for predators that deserve to be recognized in exhibits in the HOWL museum. When most people hear the word predator, they think of lions, tigers and leopards. What animal would you choose, as a predator? But one fast and furious predator is a jaguar. Because of their amazing skills and quick techniques, jaguars deserve a place in the HOWL museum

One of the most important features about jaguar’s skills, is it’s speed. They are very quick and agile. At their top speed, jaguars run 50 miles per hour. They can get a quick kill in just a moment, by bi ting the prey’s skull and piercing the head and neck before it can escape. They are also quick, and skilled at fishing.As you can see, this is only one out of many skills of a jaguar has.

Another reason why this animal is a good hunter is because it can swim. Usually jaguars live near rivers because they can get a quick hunt, but only at twilight. Animals that hunt at twilight are called crepuscular. When swimming, they can eat fish, small alligators and turtles. Jaguars are also excellent climbers! Because of these special features, jaguars don't miss any prey.

The last feature about jaguars is its strong jaws. There jaws help them eat big animals. The biggest animal a jaguar can eat, is pretty much anything it can catch. Some of them are:deer, monkey, and sloths. Did you know a jaguar can pierce a turtles skull? I would not want to mess with any jaguar!

These are a few reasons that jaguars are skilled and belong in the HOWL museum. You still may think of bears, snakes, and sharks when someone says predator but a jaguar is a fierce and talented predator. There are so many things about a jaguar that make it talented, but I only listed a few. You may think a jaguar is just there to look pretty, but they are a fast and aggressive. Jaguars should be featured in the HOWL museum because of their features and abilities!
