Which would win a fight - a panther or a leopard?
First & Foremost ... you must know that a panther is a leopard that has got a skin with a different color (black) But luckily for you .... this change has created a different animal in that Panthers tends to be more nervous than leopards. This makes them more Dangerous .... not stronger though. Besides they are more stealthy not only because of their color but for natural inclination. And they tend to finish a fight quicker .... so that they could go away and take cover .... being shy & not willing to be under the spotlights. Finally Panthers come from Black leopards .... but also Black Jaguars .... in which case they are far STRONGER & POWERFUL than a mere leopards .[when they descend from JAGUARS] .... Being BLACK JAGUARS by all means they are heavier & their bite is stronger ! In short PANTHERS[when black leopards] are a bit more Dangerous than leopards .... but when they are Black Jaguars they are surely stronger ! Regards
