What I did, was when I hit that level I had like 20 some odd exploding
rocks...and shortly before you get to the two jaguars you can grab a
chili pepper...so if you get it and don't waste time, you can jump up
on to the ledge on the other side(where now and them one jaguar will
jump up on) and just keep throughing the exploding stones and killing
both jaguars.  Quite easy I thought once I figured it out.
Now...to get past the warrior spirit on the last level.  :P
