Jaguari kundër leopardit

Një jaguar i Amerikës Jugore (Panthera onca) afër Rio Negro
Një leopard Aziatik (Panthera pardus fusca) në Parkun Kombëtar të Saptunës, Indi

Jaguari (Panthera onca) dhe leopardi (Panthera pardus), janë dy mace të mëdha me fizik të ngjashëm të gjinisë Panthera,[1][2] midis së cilëve janë bërë krahasime.[3][4][5][6]

Gëzofi Redakto

Gëzofi i jaguarit[7] është ndryshe nga ai i leopardit,[4][8] me pulla më të mëdha dhe më të errëta, dhe leopardi me pulla më të vogla dhe më të shumta në numër.[9][10][4]

Pullat në gëzofin e jaguarit janë më të mëdha,[5] më të pakta në numër,[8] zakonisht të zeza, dhe kanë viza më të trasha, me njolla të vogla brenda tyre.[4][11]

Ngjyra e gëzofit të leopardit ndryshon në varësi të klimës dhe habitatit, me një ngjyrë të verdhë të zbehtë, deri në një ngjyrë kafe të zbehtë ose të artë. Leopardët që jetojnë në pyje janë më të errët se leopardët në habitatet e thata.[4][9] Njollat zbehet teksa afrohen në pjesën e bardhë të barkut dhe drejt pjesëve të bardha te këmbët. Pullat janë më të dukshme në anën e pasme dhe te krahët.[10] Modeli i pullave është unik në secilin individ.[9][8] Pullat janë rrethore te gëzofi i leopardit në Afrikën Lindore dhe janë të çrregullta te popullatat e Afrikës Jugore dhe më të mëdha te popullatat e leopardëve Aziatikë.[12]

Përmasa Redakto

Jaguars are generally bigger in size compare to leopards,[4] with males, weighing more than 212 pounds (96 kg).[3][7] and larger males in South America have been recorded to weigh as much as 348 pounds (158 kg). The smallest South American females weigh about 79 pounds (36 kg).[4][7][8] North American jaguars are rather small, with those in the Chamela-Cuixmala Biosphere Reserve on the Mexican Pacific coast weighing just about 50 kilograms (110 lb).[13] The leopard's weight average is between 82 to 198 pounds (37 to 90 kg), with large males weighing up to at least 96 kg (212 lb).[14][3]

Jaguars Leopards
Weight avarage 123–212 pounds (56–96 kg)[15][7][8] up to 340 pounds (150 kg)[3][4][7][8] 73–198 pounds (33–90 kg)[3][14] with a maximum weight of 215 pounds (98 kg).[8]
Height at shoulder 25–30 inches (64–76 cm)[15][7][8] Avarage for males is 24–28 inches (61–71 cm), while females are 22–25 inches (56–64 cm).
Head to tail length 3.7 to 6.1 feet (1.1 to 1.9 m).[4][7][8] 35 to 75 inches (89 to 191 cm).[4][5][9]
Tail Jaguar has the shortest tail of any big cat, at 18 to 30 inches (46 to 76 cm) length.[7][8] Tail is 24–39 inches (61–99 cm) long.[4][5][3]

Bite force Redakto

 
The jaguar has an exceptionally powerful bite[16] that allows it to pierce the shells of armored prey.[4][15]

The jaguar is known for its bite strength,[16][5] while the leopard has a smaller skull than jaguar,[a] its bite strength is 'not compared' to that of the jaguar.[4][15] A jaguar bite can break the turtle's shell with a bite, it has the biggest bite strength among the big cats and it compares with the tiger as the cats with the srongest bite force.[16] The leopard bite strength can be deadly for the animals he hunts, but not as big as the jaguar.[8] Also, when the jaguar fought with the leopard,[3][5] he broke the leopard forhead skull with his bite.[4][17][16]

Gjenetika Redakto

 
Two cladograms proposed for Panthera. The cladogram showing the jaguar to be more closely related to the lion is based on studies done in 2006[18] and 2009,[19] while the one showing the leopard to be closer to the lion is based on studies done in 2010[20] and 2011.[21]

Together, the jaguar and leopard appear to be the closest living relatives of the lion (Panthera leo). Though the leopard is sympatric with the lion, in both Africa and Asia, it is not clear whether this[20][21] or the jaguar[18][19] is closer to the lion, with different analyses giving different results. In addition, as of 2017, whereas the jaguar is regarded as a monotypic species, the leopard is recognised as being divided into different subspecies.[1]

Shpërndarja Redakto

The leopard inhabits European Russia,[22] Asia and Africa.[23] The jaguar inhabits North and South America.[24]

At present, the jaguar's range extends from southwestern United States and Mexico through Central America to South America, including much of Amazonian Brazil.[4][24] The countries included in this range are Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Colombia, Costa Rica (particularly on the Osa Peninsula), Ecuador, French Guiana, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela. It is now locally extinct in El Salvador and Uruguay.[24]

The leopard has the largest distribution of all wild cats, occurring widely in Africa as well as eastern and southern Asia, although populations have shown a declining trend, and are fragmented outside of sub-Saharan Africa.[25] Within sub-Saharan Africa, the species is still numerous and even thriving in marginal habitats where other large cats have disappeared, although there is considerable potential for human-leopard conflict due to leopards preying on livestock.[3] Populations in North Africa may be extinct.[4][5] Data on their distribution in Asia are not consistent.[15]

Temperamentet Redakto

Both cats have fearsome reputations in their areas.[5] Leopard has more predators compare to jaguar,[9] and this might be one reason why leopard is small.[5][4][3]

  • Like many cats, jaguars and leopards are solitary.[4] Both can create coalitions or pairs during mating seasons.[15][10]
  • As smaller, it is agreed that the leopard is faster than the jaguar.[5][8]
  • Both jaguar and leopard tend to prey on humans.[26][27]

Man-eating Redakto

Jaguar and leopards might prey on humans[15] espacially when their prey is rare or their are old.[8] Jaguar rarely[5] or do not prey on humans.[28][29] Leopard however attack humans[27] especially in the India subcontinent and Africa where their favorite prey is selected by predators like tigers and lions.[30] The leopard may be much smaller for humans, but much more dangerous compared to other big cats and it can be compared to the tiger with higher tend to prey on humans.[4][10]

Unlike leopards, jaguars very rarely attack humans.[8] However, jaguar attacks appear to be on the rise with increased human encroachment on their habitat and a decrease in prey populations.[29][31] Sometimes jaguars in captivity attack zookeepers.[28] In addition, it appears that attacks on humans had been more common in the past, at least after conquistadors arrived in the Americas, to the extent that the jaguar had a fearsome reputation in the Americas, akin to the lion and tiger in the Old World.[4][15] Nevertheless, even in those times, the jaguar's chief prey was the capybara, not the human, and Charles Darwin reported a saying of Native Americans that people would not have to fear the jaguar much, as long as capybaras were abundant.[6]

Dyluftimet Redakto

Meqë ata gjenden në kontinente të ndryshme, jaguari dhe leopardi kurrë nuk kanë bashkëjetuar ose dyluftuar në natyrë të egër.[4] The only fight between them was made in 20 century (1922) in captivity where jaguar break the forhead skull of leopard. After 10 minutes leopard die.[17] Though in the captivity fights are filmed, there is not enough evidence to see which of them could have won a fight.[5]
