Jazz

Jazz the Jaguar is a jaguar who lives in the forests of South America.

Physical Appearance

Jazz is has a brown-orange coat decorated with blue-purple spots all over it. He also has a purple-colored nose located between the six whiskers on his face (each side has three whiskers on it). In addition to this, Jazz has three white claws sticking out of each of his four feet.

Personality

Jazz is often shown to do naughty tricks, often providing pranks for Adam - often portrayed as an antagonistic character towards him. Jazz is frequently seen with Leopoldo in scenes where he appears - showing that Leopoldo is one of Jazz's allies. In his first appearance, Jazz and the other animals (with Leopoldo and Duddley) won't let Adam play football at first. Later, he and the other two begin to reform while rescuing Adam from the cave. In his second appearance, Jazz and the other animals (this time with Leopoldo and Taco) try to scare Adam with many traps while trying to find Annie. He and the other two are scared of Annie at first until the three realize that Annie is not really scary.

Since the Season 2 finale, Jazz and the other two begin to reform and work together. Jazz, Leopoldo, and Taco begin to use teamwork to get the treasure from the mountain and share its reward.

Trivia

  • Jazz is the first character to speak with a Hispanic accent.
    • Coincidentally, Jazz, Taco, and Tallulah are the only South American characters that speak with a Hispanic accent.
  • Jazz eventually stopped being antagonistic since the Season 2 finale. He usually makes Adam and Leopoldo become friends (or sidekicks).
  • He is the only character whose name ends with the letter "Z".
  • He acts like Steele in "Balto". These antagonists are very mean to Balto and Adam.
  • His animation is very similar to the tiger from the animated short "When I Grow Up, I Want to Be a Tiger" directed by An Vrombaut. However, there are two differences:
    • Jazz is running to kick Adam (as a football). The tiger is running away from the hunters trying to shoot it only for the tiger sequence to fade to a cat who is actually pretending to be a tiger. It appears that the tiger animation was recycled for the scenes where Jazz is seen playing football, as both of these projects have An Vrombaut involved in them.
  • His favorite dance move is the Jaguar Jive.
  • Jazz was voiced by Dan Russell.
  • Given the fact that Jazz is seen in episodes that take place in South America, he is most likely based on a South American jaguar.
  • In France, he is called "Jean-Jacques". The names "Jean" and "Jacques" are typical French names.
