Best Answer

Panther is a generic term and does not apply to a single species. It may refer to a lion - panthera leo

a tiger - panthera tigris

a leopard - panthera pardus

a jaguar - panthera onca

a snow leopard - panthera uncia


The two species are in the same genus so there is a chance that they could successfully mate. A leopon is the result of breeding a male leopard with a lioness. The head of the animal is similar to that of a lion, while the rest of the body carries similarities to leopards.


Black panthers are actually either a melanistic (black) leopard or a melanistic jaguar.


A jaglion or jaguon is the offspring between a male jaguar and a female lion (lioness).

Who would win a black panther or a lion?

Th e Panther is a melanistic Jaguar or Leopard. Lions are pack hunters and are less deadly on their own. A male Lion can have 50-100% more body mass than a Panther or even more in some cases. According to many sources the Jaguar is the most strongest big cat while pound for pound it is the Leopard. The Leopard is far more aggressive then any other big cat and it is said that the Panther (melanistic Jaguar or Leopard) is even more aggressive than the spotted cats. According to many zoologists a 160 kg Panther (Leopard or Jaguar) will defeat a 250 kg male Lion. I share your opinion , ..... although you can try to find a 160 Kg. Panther ! meaning that Panthers can weigh anything between 40 to 90 Kg. Maybe in extremely rare cases they can reach 100 Kg. So a Big Lion [over 200 kg] will surely win against the Biggest Panther. But a medium-Lion I wouldn't be so sure ! Regards
