No. ?The fastest land animal is the Cheetah which is capable of approximately 70 miles per hour. ?


The relatively slow .45 calibre round has a muzzle velocity of approximately 850 feet per second. ?


850 feet per second x 60 seconds = 5100 feet per minute

5100 fpm * 60 minutes = 3, 060,000 feet per hour.

3060000 / 5280 (feet in a mile) = approximately 570 miles per hour. ?This is more than enough speed to overtake a Cheetah, much less a panther.

The earlier answer claiming leopards run 70 mph is incorrect. That's cheetahs that can do that. A Black Panther is a melanitistic leopard - the difference is that the black rosettes that appear on a leopard have expanded so much on a black panther that the whole animal appears black. Also, leopards are Old World, primarily Africa. Jaguars are New World. They're not likely to be seen in races against each other.
