How Jaguar is inherited

Jaguar is co-dominant: one copy produces a visual Jaguar, and two copies produce the Leucistic Jaguar. Breeding a Jaguar to a normal gives about 50% Jaguar babies.

New to these terms? See the genetics glossary.

Jaguar is linked to neurological issues; the super form is usually not viable.

Health notes

⚠️ Neurological issues (wobble, poor coordination) are common.

⚠️ The super (Leucistic Jaguar) rarely survives.
