TheColonel4669, panther and puma are not the same, a puma is another name for a mountain lion totally different cat

Steveh22, not misleading at all, it clearly states which continent each cat is from. The whole point is that we use the term black panther to denote a black cat of either variety, both leopards and jaguars can be born without their usual two-tone markings and are then referred to as a black panther.

Black panthers and jaguars have the same colouring as their normal coloured partners. You just can't see their markings due to their skin colour.

The Florida panther is a subspecies of cougar, but isn't usually black.

Squinty7, did you have multiple choices? That's odd, cos I had 7 blank boxes and 14 letters to choose from.

Melode, India is part of the Asia continent, so yes they have a large leopard population. In fact they were once considered problematic and killed due to human encroachment on their territory but are now treated like we treat wildlife that lives too close to humans. They tranquillize them, have them vet checked and move them to a remote location where they are safe. But makes me wonder how long before someone wants to build on that land as well. We are an invasive species on earth that should be eradicated.

Player #3246915, correct; think of it in this way: they're all panthers, those that aren't black are called leopards or jaguars, based on their continent of origin.

Melode, There are leopards in India, and there were once lions, too.

Squinty7, I grew up in Utah in the 60s. At that time, Hogel Zoo had a beautiful liger named Shasta. Ligers have indeterminate growth, and she was huge!

In the Jungle Book there was a black panther named Bagheera. So I guess there a few in India.

even though I knew a black panther was either a jaguar or a leopard and that black panther isn't a separate species. It had never occurred to me that there's no separate panther species itself.

DonMercs, leopards and jaguars are not the same at all they are completely different animals

Florida panthers aren't black.

UnfilledInertia8, Indeed they're in parts of Arkansas, both golden and black coated panthers have been seen. Game and Fish folks don't know everything!

Uninitialized, there are panthers in Southern Arksnsas, Mississippi and Louisiana as well, very similar to the ones in Florida. Heck, thete may be some in other Southern states. Something for me to search for on the internet for further education.
Colette
At least they have the same markings.
