No, because a panther is not its real name a black "panther" does not exist. You see they are actually called Black leopards because its a type of leopard. If you see a black leopard in the sun you can see faint spots.
No, there are melanistic (black) forms of the leopard, jaguar, or cougar which people may consider to be a black panther but the fact is that the leopard/jaguar was born with melanistic (black) chromosomes instead of normal pigmentation chromosomes. The term "black panther" is the over-all term for melanistic (black) leopards, jaguars, or cougars. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Blacks panthers ARE real, they're just melanistic forms of the leopard, jaguar, and cougar. It's like saying the wolf isn't real, it just has many types.
The scientific name for the black panther, which refers to either a melanistic leopard or jaguar, is Panthera pardus for the leopard and Panthera onca for the jaguar. The term "black panther" is not a distinct species but rather a common name used for these melanistic big cats.
