Sir William is probably the best name for a jaguar ever.

Oh, the black one is well again? I thought it died years ago. When I was visiting the zoo, she was terribly ill. Glad to see her again this year.

Terrific shot! I've heard jaguars described as 'leopards on steroids.'

Good job! I tried a few times to get good photos of the two. It's really difficult because either they're hiding or they're moving very close to the glass barrier. (y___y)

This is an amazing picture. You captured both colors of the jaguar and the differences between the colors and the genders are immediately and strikingly noticeable.

Black jaguars are my sorority's mascot, so it's always lovely to see one in photos. They're both so gorgeous, though, and they have lovely names. Amazing job on the photo, woxys.

They've got a real tough look.

With the contrast and very coincidentally correct placement of the orange/yellow one, the black one looks much more intense, like he is defending him. LOVE LOVE LOVE it. <3
