? about my jag

[beerad555]

Is it normal for jaguars or any fish for that matter to what appears to be streaching his lips or opening mouth wide open? He only does this on occasion and i was just wondering if this was normal?

yes it is, my jags does that from time to time, its the same as a human yawning in my opinion. Its like stretching a muscle to make sure its working properly

Mine does it on occasion too. Kinda cool to actually see how big his mouth is! He's gotta stretch before his daily excavating!
