The spots in jaguar rosettes are typically darker centers surrounded by lighter, circular markings. These rosettes serve as a form of camouflage, helping jaguars blend into their forested habitats. Unlike leopards, whose rosettes are more tightly packed, jaguar rosettes are larger and often have a central spot within them. This unique pattern not only aids in hunting but also plays a role in social signaling among the species.
