Black specimens of this big cat are more common among the Amazonian population than elsewhere. Around 25% of the jaguars in this region are black. Black specimens are rare in other regions, but they do occur. It is impossible to know exactly how many there are.
There are no black lions. The only big cats that occasionally produce a melanistic (black) individual are leopards and jaguars which are collectively known as black panthers.
