A black panther is a type of large cat that can be black jaguars, black leopards, or rarely black tigers. They live in forests, swamps, and grasslands in Africa and Asia. Black panthers eat small animals like mice and rodents, and sometimes larger prey. Cubs are born with faint spots that fade to black as they grow. Females may have polka dots like cheetahs.
