The jaguar (Panthera onca) has paws that are 4.7 inches (12 cm) wide at the front and 2.7 to 3.1 inches (7 to 8 cm) wide at the back. They are well suited to its arboreal life. Short and powerful, they have five fingers with retractable claws that allow it to extract turtles from their shells to eat them. Endowed with clavicles like primates, the jaguar uses the great flexibility of its forelimbs to capture its preys by embracing them and making them fall to the ground. Its prints are made up of a large foot pad and four small marks corresponding to the finger pads, its thumbs leaving no trace on the ground.
