Edgar Hill the Jaguar

My name is Edgar Hill I was brought to the zoo after scavenging at a dump site. Can you see why? it’s a lot easier than hunting when you only have 1 eγε. I lost one eye to glaucoma here at the zoo, I don’t need to hunt or scavenge! Now. The villagers who reported me feel safe and I do too!
