European Jaguar
Flanking, Shroud
The European jaguar has often been thought to be a
forest-dwelling cat, similar in habits to the modern jaguar,
although recent work suggests that the association between the
European jaguar and forested habitats is not as strong as has often
been assumed. It was probably a solitary animal.
Specimens have been found in England, Germany, Spain, France, and
the Netherlands. Sometimes it is recognized as a subspecies of
Panthera onca.
