Kids Love Cats
One of the benefits of jaguar coloring pages is that kids love cats, and jaguars are just big cats. Jaguars even have many of the same facial and body features that domestic house cats have, and kids find felines of all sizes cute and adorable, and they love to create art featuring these stunning animals. Let your children’s imagination run wild, giving them the choice as to what colors they want to use to bring their jaguar coloring pages to life.
There Are Often Other Animals In The Scenes
Another benefit of jaguar coloring pages is that they often include other animals found in the same habitat as jaguars. It is not uncommon to find coloring pages that have jaguars as well as lions, tigers, deer, armadillos, and even panthers. Furthermore, since jaguars live in the rainforests, your children will also have the chance to color jungle-like scenes filled with foliage and plants. There may even be a few insects in the scene as well.
Teaching Opportunity
Coloring pages featuring jaguars give adults the perfect opportunity to teach kids about these fascinating creatures. In captivity, these felines can live over 20 years, while their lifespan is usually only about 11 to 12 years in the wild. Jaguars are the 3rd biggest cat in the world, listed behind the tiger and the lion. But it is the largest cat found in the Americas. They range in size from 80 pounds all the way up to 200 pounds. Jaguars are often mistaken for leopards due to their spotted coat. However, their spots look completely different. They have circular markings and some of these circular markings have black dots in the middle. There are also melanistic jaguars, which means their coat appears to be almost completely black.
Promote Big Cat Conservation
Like a lot of other species of big cats, jaguars are in danger and need protection. These big cats are not in abundance, and they are actually considered endangered. So it’s no surprise that many different conservation organizations throughout the world are working to help save these felines from extinction. Jaguar coloring pages are a wonderful way to introduce your children to this feline species, while also discussing ways to help save these cats. One way is to avoid purchasing items made from palm oil or wood from the rainforests as the harvesting of these items shrinks the jaguars’ national habitat.
Make It A Day Filled With Jaguars
Coloring pages are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the jaguar theme. There are also books and movies that feature this graceful feline, and you can even have your children practice their best jaguar growl! Make an entire day filled with jaguar-related activities. While your children are coloring, read them a book featuring a jaguar or let them watch cartoons that feature jaguars and other big cats. Make sure to feed your little jaguars in between the coloring pages and actives, because little jaguars can get hungry quickly when they are having fun.
