This promises to be an absolute corker of a tie. In one corner we have a debutante who is having an electrifying campaign, scoring huge in the last round. In the other we have a three time champion and a beast who has never been defeated. Voting patterns have changed in the years he's been away giving the debutante the opportunity to pull off what would undoubtedly be the biggest upset in WHC history.
48 hours, two beasts, one vote, one winner. Think carefully.

Road to Quarter finals:
2nd round: Beat Chinstrap Penguin 74 - 25
Group B: 1st (29 votes)
Jaguar is taking the WHC by storm in his debut campaign. He won his qualifying group and then smashed the Chinstrap Penguin out of sight, scoring a whopping 74 votes(only the Honey Badger scored more, and then only by a couple). How is he doing it? Partly because he has the world's greatest animal campaign manager (David Attenborough) but mostly by being hard as nails and graceful and good looking to boot. He's a sleek but powerful killing machine. An accomplished runner, climber and swimmer he is confident on any terrain so wherever you go, he'll be there, stalking and chasing and eventually killing. How does he kill? With one bite of his incredibly powerful jaws -so powerful they can bite through reptilian armour- to the base of his victims skull. He's an aggressive beast who will jealously and ferociously defend his territory.

There is only one beast in this competition that has never lost a competitive match. That distinction falls to the Polar Bear, three tournaments, three titles. So dominant was he in the early years of EWHC that he was retired to the Hall of Fame. But this is the tenth anniversary edition of WHC and it wouldn't be right to sit him out of the festivities, so here he is. It's fair to say he's found it tough going so far, finishing second in his group and then sneaking out of the second round with the lowest winning total. He'll need to raise his game considerably if he wants to maintain his unbeaten record.
So what is this legend packing in the hardness stakes? Lets start with the obvious; he's extremely powerful and strong. He can fight anything from Whales down. He can scale sheer ice cliff faces. He is a pure carnivore, it's meat or no deal for him(he is the largest meat eater on land). Perhaps most importantly for this competition is his aggression. He is capable of mind melting aggression when he wants to. Encroach on his territory and you're ****ed. One swipe off his paw will take your head clean off.
