How do scientists test to see if panthers are the same species as leopards?

The term 'panther' applies to certain big cats the way the word 'terrier' does to dogs. All leopards, jaguars and cougars ( also known as mountain lions or pumas ) are members of the panther family and are therefore panthers. Most people hear the word ' panther ' and think of a very big black cat. These are always black leopards or black jaguars. No-one would look at a leopard and say 'Oh look at that panther' but nevertheless it is a panther - one type of panther.
