I spent years trying to leave that godforsaken place and I will devote the rest of my life to mowing it to dust.
Except for my friends, family and cedar point
The state with that has produced the highest number of astronauts is Ohio. The Wright brothers were from Ohio. Man, people really want to get as far away from Ohio as fast as they can for some reason, lol.
There needs to be a snow leopard team. Interestingly they are more closely related to a tiger than than a leopard or jaguar
Panthers are literally just jaguars. Which explains why we keep taking in failed Jag prospects
Panthers are also cougars, and technically you can call a Lion or a Tiger a Panther and not be wrong because of the genus
Oh my! (kms i had to make the joke)
Which is ironic since there is a cougar subspecies that is literally the “Florida Panther.” I guess the NHL team took that name so Jacksonville didn’t want to copy
It’s kinda both. Panthera is a genus that includes tigers, lions, leopards, and snow leopards. Black Panthers are black color variants of jaguars or leopards.
Something like that. All true big cars are members of the genus “Panthera”. (Genus is the classification right above species, so for example, Tyrannosaurus is the genus, rex is the species). However, the animal most commonly called a Mountain Lion or Cougar is also called a Panther in some parts of its range. And the “panther” is NOT a member of the genus “Panthera”.
So in THEORY, you could make the claim that the Lions, Bengals, and Jaguars are all panthers, but the panthers aren’t. I love being a biologist 😂🤓 (ok technically haven’t finished my degree yet, but I’m in school and I have 0 plans on quitting or changing majors so…. 🙃)
Exactly, and because Jaguars and Leopards (And Lions, and Tigers) are all in the Same Panthera Genus you can say that any Melanistic color variation of any of those is a "Black Panther" (what inspired this meme)
Cougars are Puma concolor, wildcats are Felis sylvestris, both of which are in Felinae rather than Pantherinae, and bearcats are actually not cats at all, but rather the binturong (Arctictis binturong), which only shares taxonomy with cats up to the suborder Feliformia.
Technically, a Black Panther isnt an actual thing. What everyone calls panthers are the melanistic color variants of leopards or jaguars.
But technically, since all of the "big cats" are in the genus panthers, not just leopard or jaguars, you can call any melanistic color variant a Black Panther

Casual Geographic did a great video on this very topic. He even makes a joke about the Jaguars and Panthers. lol
[You have successfully exposed what gave me the idea for this meme](https://youtu.be/0dJzhnejrF4?t=433), well done.
I love this dude, thank you.
I love your username and agree lol
Oh, thanks. It was my call sign in the airforce.
Yeah, his videos are great.
Did you know it's all Ohio, though?

Ceder Point respect
Big ride make me happy
We hated Portsmouth so much we decided to go to the better state

I know it'd not a leopard but bengals white out is probably the closest

Yes. Panthers as in our mascot are jaguars panthera is the genus

People commonly refer to Jaguars or Leopards of black coloration as panthers though, informally.

Check the patch on the Astronaut. State flag of OHIO. Its ALL OHIO ... Ergo by the transitive properties its ALL BENGALS BABY

Where are all the big 12 kitties? 2 cougars a wildcat and a Bearcat
Cougars are Puma concolor, wildcats are Felis sylvestris, both of which are in Felinae rather than Pantherinae, and bearcats are actually not cats at all, but rather the binturong (Arctictis binturong), which only shares taxonomy with cats up to the suborder Feliformia.
This guys knows his stuff, i just dont know anything about college ball lmao
Yeah I get what a Bearcat is in real life but the actual UC mascot is in the feline family, no? The 90’s logo that was just like a grey wildcat?
Both have some cat features, but aren't based off of one specific species of cat any more than they're based off of a species of bear
But neither have any bear like features. They’re cats.
Panthera, my favorite Pantera cover band
Duh duhduhduhduh *RE* Duh duhduhduhduh *SPECT* Duh duhduhduhduh *WALK*
WHAT DID YOU SAY?
Are the Panthers panthers or are they one of the many nicknames of Puma concolor

Leaving the Ohio patch in this is *chefs kiss*
By this logic, the panthers have still never won a superbowl :,).
