Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

The Jaguar, Panthera onca, is a big cat, a feline in the Panthera genus. It is the only Panthera species found in the Americas. The jaguar is the third-largest feline after the tiger and the lion, and the largest and most powerful feline in the Western Hemisphere. The jaguar's present range extends from Mexico across much of Central America and south to Paraguay and northern Argentina. Apart from a known and possibly breeding population in Arizona (southeast of Tucson), the cat has largely been extirpated from the United States since the early 1900s.

This spotted cat most closely resembles the leopard physically, although it is usually larger and of sturdier build and its behavioral and habitat characteristics are closer to those of the tiger. While dense rainforest is its preferred habitat, the jaguar will range across a variety of forested and open terrain. It is strongly associated with the presence of water and is notable, along with the tiger, as a feline that enjoys swimming. The jaguar is a largely solitary, stalk-and-ambush predator, and is opportunistic in prey selection. It is also an apex and keystone predator, playing an important role in stabilizing ecosystems and regulating the populations of prey species. The jaguar has an exceptionally powerful bite, even relative to the other big cats.[3] This allows it to pierce the shells of armoured reptiles[4] and to employ an unusual killing method it bites directly through the skull of prey between the ears to deliver a fatal bite to the brain.[5]

The jaguar is a near threatened species and its numbers are declining. Threats include habitat loss and fragmentation. While international trade in jaguars or their parts is prohibited, the cat is still regularly killed by humans, particularly in conflicts with ranchers and farmers in South America. Although reduced, its range remains large; given its historical distribution, the jaguar has featured prominently in the mythology of numerous indigenous American cultures, including that of the Maya and Aztec.

The word jaguar is pronounced /'d?ægw?r/ or (in British English) /'d?ægju?r/. It comes to English from one of the Tupi-Guarani languages, presumably the Amazonian trade language Tupinambá, via Portuguese jaguhiar.[6] The Tupian word, yaguara "beast", sometimes translated as "dog",[7][8] is used for any carnivorous mammal;[9] the specific word for jaguar was yaguareté, with the suffix -eté meaning "real" or "true".[6][9][10]

7. How to Stop Snoring
September 10, 2009

When I was in college, the guy in the room next to mine snored so loudly that the wall in between acted like a giant woofer and actually amplified the sound into my room. Each night I'd be jarred into semi-consciousness by the clamor, awakened from my recurring dream of bedding Tawny Kitaen atop an apple-red Jaguar parked in an elephant seal rookery. If you're a snorer, your wife is either lucky enough to be able to sleep through the din, or she's strong-willed enough to keep herself from going Cuckoo's Nest on you with a pillow every night. Do your wife a favor, hell, do the neighbors a ... (read more)
