The modern day Jaguar has various features to help it survive in the jungles of South America. They have sharp, straight teeth for tearing meat. They have spotted fur for camouflage and padded paws for sneaking up on prey. Jaguars also have a long tail for balancing in trees. They have thin fur for the hot, humid climate. If climate change continues most of the habitat of these cats could be changed to a sea with islands where the higher elevation was. The jaguar would evolve to an aquatic jaguar better fit its environment. It would have curved, sharp, backward pointing teeth to catch fish. It would have darker fur on top and lighter fur on bottom to camouflage in water. It would have webbed paws, duller claws and a paddle-like tail for transport in water. It would have fur like an otter to keep water out.
