Did you know that jaguars live in the tropical lowlands of the rainforest? They live there because they prefer to be near ponds, streams, and where there is a lot of prey. Jaguars are also carnivores like lions. Jaguars eat capybaras, deer, turtles, and various reptiles. Jaguars are large and they have short legs, fur covered with spots and dark rosettes, however, they can also be all black. In the future jaguars will most likely become endangered or extinct. Poachers will become a larger issue for the jaguar. The poachers will use bear traps and nets to harm the jaguar. Deforestation from forest fires and climate change will make the animal not have a safe place to live. The rain forest climate will change and make everything overheated.
