Yes, and no. A Black Panther/black puma is really a jaguar, or leopard, that has melanism. That is when the cats fur is turned black. Some cats with melanism you can still see some of the tawny and spots. Cats with melanism can have littermates without it. It is possible that all animals can get it.
