Regular jaguars have an iconic, easily recognizable appearance. They possess golden to orange-ish fur with a dense pattern of black, blotchy spots across their entire bodies. They are relatively large, standing at 2 feet 2 inches on average, with an average body length of 5 to 6 feet and an average weight ranging between 150 and 200 pounds, with females tending to weigh less.
Jaguars have only one known subspecies, ''panthera nigris'', also known as the ''black panther''. They are no different from regular jaguars other than fur coloration, which is completely black. Roughly one in five jaguars are black panthers. [[Pantherian|Pantherians]] are genetically related to jaguars, even sharing the 1 in 5 population of black-furred individuals.
These creatures have the particular ability to growl and roar. Roars are used for intimidation, expressing anger, or alerting other jaguars in the vicinity that their territory is being invaded by an unknown (and usually hostile) creature. Like all felines, they are carnivorous, and their large size and slender, agile bodies allow them to hunt far above their size class.
