when I notice a black Jaguar sitting on the corner. Not as if I have never saw one, it was just very awkward to see a car like this in this part of town. Well, I made my way up the stairs on my apartment on the corner of Reed and Oak. I go in and take my shower, and as I go to blow dry my hair I cannot help to notice that the Jaguar is still sitting there. I decide to ware my denim tube dress. I head out to my car and to realize as soon as I step out of my building the Jaguar takes off. I went to
“Bam bam bam” you hear gun-shots in the forest a person comes out with and endangered Jaguar its face covered in blood you want to help save its species, but you don't know how, but then you ask yourself “Do I want to save this species?” the Florida Panther should be helped and if not goodbye Florida Panther.

These are just a few reasons why the mighty jaguar http://www.care2.com/causes/olympics-mascot-juma-the-jaguar-shot-dead.html has been revered by different indigenous societies. The jaguar is also revered for its adability: it's a big cat that's comfortable moving in between trees and water come day or night. But modernity has been a fierce opponent for the king of the Americas. So you can imagine the excitement that the 2011 sighting of a male jaguar -- later named El Jefe -- in the United States
"The Jaguar" is about a trip that Hughes made to the zoo. In the poem, he describes the animals in a zoo and their behaviour. It compares the apes, parrots, tiger, lion and a boa constrictor to the jaguar, which is an animal that lives differently to the others in the way that it views its life. The poem begins by describing the apes 'yawning' and 'adoring their fleas', and the fact that they are in the sun adds to the sleepy air. I think this line was deliberately chosen to convey the monotonous
The Olmecs were farmers, traders, artists… innovators. The Olmec culture first emerged in the Isthmus region of Tehuantepec. The site of San Lorenzo, which sits on the Coatzacoalcos River, sheds the most light on this mysterious culture. During this time period, The Initail Formative, food surplus sparked an increase in population and career specialization. With the increase of specialization and sedentism came the environment for complex culture. The Olmec people were farmers, “using ground-stone

In the plaque, there is an Oba holding two leopards, which was an image that was explored in the film. In the film, the symbols were decoded for the culture of the Dogon people; In the Dogon context, the leopard represented the clan of one man, and if a leopard was harmed, it would translate to detriment

that when the Black Panther totem appears in your life, it is also a symbol of releasing your passions, and starting a new phase of your life. Melanism is due a recessive dominate gene mutation, alto it is most common in jaguars, the black panther can also be referred to as a jaguar. Close examination of one of these black cats will show that the typical markings are still there, and are simply hidden by the surplus of the black pigment melanin.

Hughes, was born in 1939 and died in 1989, he wrote two poems, The Jaguar and The Thought-Fox. These are the poems that I am discussing in my essay and also what his ideas are on the poems. He also specialises in nature poems and these are what we have also been studying. The Thought-Fox is quite a different poem. It wasn’t written about the fox it was written about him writing about the fox (confusing I Know!!!). The Jaguar on the other hand, was about the animal and it was describing the
In appearance the Jaguar is often confused with the Leopard both cats, depending to a degree on sub-species have a similar brownish/yellow base fur colour which is distinctively marked with dark rosette markings. However, the jaguar can be distinguished by the presence of small dots or irregular shapes within the larger rosette markings, a more stocky and muscular body and a shorter tail. Melanistic or black jaguars (see below) are common in certain parts of its range and are often confusingly labelled
It's a great day meet the jaguar. But, first will you stop and put your pretend-eyes on? Jaguar does not like humans! He does not trust people! They want his pretty coat to make people things like purses or coats. When he is real hungry, jaguar kills the farmer's cows. The farmer shoots at him. So, even if we were in the wild, we would probably never see this beautiful big cat up close. But, now you know why jaguar hides from people. Jaguar's yellowish coat is spotted with black rosettes or rings
Poetry Commentary on The Jaguar, by Ted Hughes The Jaguar is a descriptive poem by Ted Hughes. It tells the story of a jaguar and its life at a zoo. The poem very much describes the atmosphere of the zoo and how this particular jaguar overcomes this enclosed surrounding. I think the authors words are very passionate and strongly link to the character and behaviour of the jaguar. I think he expects the reader to visualise this scene and have the same thoughts as the jaguar. I think he also expects
Jaguars are part of exclusive group known as the “big cats,” which include the lion, tiger, and panther. The scientific name for this species is Panthera Onca. Panthera is a Greek term originating from the Latin word for panther while Onca is derived from the Latin word for lynx.
