Technically, I believe werejaguars were/are 'Canaima' and not 'Kanima' but there isn't that much info on them and this article actually mentions snakes. More is known about Nagual (mentioned in the first episode of season four) even though in history they have been shapeshifters that become more than just Jaguar. So I can see why they went with Nagual for werejaguars, and what is partly their own legend for Kanima.
