No. A Black Panther is the melanistic (black) "version" of a jaguar or leopard. A black jaguar will mate with a normally colored jaguar just as a black leopard will mate with a normally colored leopard.

Black panthers are real! However they are only a subspecies within the same species as leopards (they can successfully interbreed).
