Horse anatomy. The horse has a sesamoid bone called the navicular bone, located within the hoof, that lies on the palmar aspect of the coffin joint between the second phalanx and third phalanx (coffin bone). The navicular bone in the horse is supported by the distal sesamoidean impar ligament and two collateral sesamoidean ligaments.
Young males are at first leave, jostling with the older jaguars until they succeed in claiming a territory. Typical life span of the jaguar in the wild is estimated at around 12 â 15 years. In captivity, the jaguar lives up to 23 years, placing it among the longest living cats.
Jaguars live in the rain forest where there are many rivers, swamps, ponds and lakes. Although Jaguars are categorized in the cat family, they have adapted to different bodies of water, unlike most cats. This characteristic makes them able to catch prey in the water such as caiman, fish and turtles. Jaguars have short limbs, a muscular body and strong jaws, making it easy to catch large prey with one bite to the neck. Also, Jaguars have adapted climbing skills for when the forest floor gets flooded. When it does, Jaguars can adapt and live in a tree for many months. This is a picture of a jaguar in the rain forest. It is probably creeping around to get prey by the way its body form is.
