5. Jaguar (Panthera onca)
Looks like: Compact body with a yellow and tan coat (can also be reddish brown to black) with spots that are more solid and black on the head and back and turn into "rosette-shaped patterns along the side and back of the body."
Found in: Almost completely eliminated from the U.S. — one of the last ones was killed in Arizona in 2018.
Endangered? Definitely.
Sad Fact: "It's believed there is only one wild jaguar living in the U.S.," Bass says.
