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.

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
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

Executive Summary: Jaguar PLC, 1984 This case explores the operating exposure of Jaguar PLC in 1984, just as the government is about to relinquish control and take the company public via an IPO. The primary concern of the CFO is that Jaguar sells over 50% of its cars in the US, while its production costs and factories are U.K.-based.

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 he expects the reader to visualise this scene and have the same thoughts as the jaguar. I think he also expects

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.

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
