Do black panthers live in the forest floor?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

They are found in Asia and Africa, South America. They are only black versions of the leopard and jaguar.

Black panthers are carnivores and eat meat as their main source of nourishment. They will eat just about anything that moves as long as they are capable of catching them and their stomachs can handle. Midsized mammals such as deer, warthogs, monkeys, antelopes, gazelles, wild goats, etc. - all can be their meal. They also eat birds, reptiles, hyraxes, baboons, frogs, fish, rabbits, rats, etc. Occasionally, they supplement this meaty diet with grass, eggs, and fruit.

Black panthers are able to adapt well to new environments or various circumstances. When necessary, they replace one kind of prey with another. In the case of a shortage of wild animals, they may catch livestock or pets near their home range.

As such, dogs are sometimes targets of black panthers because they tend to wander alone and are easy to catch. Black panthers will take domesticated goats, sheep or pigs as well.


Also, A "Black Panther" is really a melanistic Jaguar or Leopard. There has never been a true recording of melanism is a Panther/Cougar/Puma (all the same thing). The folklore idea of the "Black Panther" or "Black Cougar" can be credited to errors in species identification where individuals likely saw a mar gay or ocelot or even a rare mealnistic bobcat who's size was exaggerated.

In short, a Black Panther's diet is the same diet as a Jaguar or Leopard, because any Black Panther that exists is Jaguar or Leopard and not a Panther at all.

Do black panthers have any enemies?

Asked by Wiki User

The term black panther may refer to a melanistic (black) leopard or a melanistic jaguar. A leopard would have no problems getting along with another leopard even if it were black. I doubt a leopard would get along well with a black jaguar, however.

What animal can live longer than a human?

User Avatar

Asked by PRIZExREBEL

The life span of most animals is far less than that of humans who live between 75 and 80 years. The life expectancy of an animal has many factors, including its environment, its food supply, and whether or not it is captive. The life span of Galapagos tortoise is 200+ years and that of Box turtle, carp is 100 years.

In the mammal species, the larger animals tend to live longer than smaller ones. Take for instance this scenario. Man lives longer than many mammals. Next comes, elephants, monkeys, horses, and down the line to the tiny house mouse that lives the shortest period of time. Notice how the bigger mammals live longer than the smaller ones!
