I do not know the name in Swahill, however Panthers are indigenous to Africa, they are just black Leopard. They have been reported from Ethiopia (formerly Abyssinia), from the forests of Mount_Kenyaand from the Aberdares.
Panthers are not indigenous to Africa and especially East Africa, the home of Swahili.
Therefore the panther does not have a Swahili name
