An Onza is a that resembles a cougar not a jaguar. An Onza is only 68 inches long. These animals were much like cougars but had lighter frames, longer
legs, a longer tail, and longer ears and had striped legs. Onza's are
also much more aggresive and viscous. After examination a frozen onza corpse in the 1990s, Texas Tech
University researchers concluded that the onza is most likely a genetic
variant of cougar, but not a distinct cat species. Owing to DNA testing, it is now known that it is in fact a puma and
that there are no significant differences between that corpse and any
other puma in a zoo or in the field. There is another legend that is not well known by cryptozoologists.
According to that legend, there are two species of jaguarundi living in
Mexico. One of them is usually called onza and the other one is
referred by any other local name.
