panthers are not their own species. They are leopards with black coats. And if they are born with black coats their brothers and sisters can have regular coats.
No, black panthers can be either a melanistic (black) jaguar or a melanistic leopard. They are not a single species.
Black panthers are either black leopards or black jaguars.
There are black panthers but white panthers are just a white specimen of any of several species of larger cat.
No. Black panthers are black specimens of the leopard or jaguar, and neither species are endangered.
Black panthers in Africa are known as Leopards (Panthera pardus); Black Panthers in the Americas are known as Jaguars (Panthera onca). So it is a real species.
Black panthers are actually a color variant of other species of cats - leopards or jaguars. They are not a specific species and therefor, although very rare, they are not endangered.
Only in zoos. Leopards and jaguars are not found there in the wild. Black panthers are only dark specimens of these two species, not a species unto themselves.
No. Panther is another name for jaguars, leopards, or pumas.
Black panthers are either black leopards or black jaguars. Neither species is currently an endangered species.
They can be- the black panther is a melanistic color variation of any Panthera species. The black panthers in Asia and Africa are leopards (Panthera pardus), but the black panthers in the Americas are black jaguars (Panthera onca).
"Black panthers" are merely melanistic (black) specimens of the leopard (Panthera Pardus) or the jaguar (Panthera Onca). There is no such thing as a "black panther" species, and, as neither the leopard or jaguar is endangered at the moment, neither are the black members of those species. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Black panthers are more of a genus than of a species. So you've gotten that part right, but don't say that black panthers don't exist, because they ARE real.
Black panthers are real! However they are only a subspecies within the same species as leopards (they can successfully interbreed). The only difference is fur color: leopards have black spots on a tan background, black panthers have black spots on a black background (so you are unable to identify the spots).
Yes, they are a protected species.
