The black panther faces threats from poaching and loss of habitat. It lives in a variety of habitats across Africa and Asia, including rainforests, woodlands, and savannahs. Black panthers range in size from 3 to 7 feet long and can weigh up to 250 pounds. Their diet consists mainly of medium-sized mammals like deer and antelopes. To save the black panther from extinction, efforts must be made to stop poaching, protect their habitats from human encroachment, and place more in zoos for protection.
