A leopard is another big cat that lives in Asia
and Africa. It is famous for the spots it has all over
its coat. Some leopards are completely black. These
are sometimes called black panthers. The leopards’
habitat covers the largest area of all the big cats.
Because of this, there are many different kinds of
leopards.
The jaguar is another big cat with spots, but it
lives in Central and South America. Even though
jaguars look like leopards, they are bigger and more
aggressive, like tigers. Jaguars have very strong
jaws that let them eat animals such as turtles and
crocodiles. Jaguars use their powerful jaws even when
eating softer animals, using their bite to crush the
skulls of their prey.
