Biography of Panther

The animal of the panther is the animal of the Panther, we mean “pink” what other panthers are familiar to us? Kiplin’s panther named Bagira, the best friend Mowgli. Also a fictional character. And by the way, since it went, in itself the animal of the panther in fact ... does not exist! Who is the anthracite thunderstorm of the jungle then? Panthers: Lions, Tigers, Leopards and Jaguars will begin with the explanation: the type of Panther does not exist - but there is a biological genus Panthera, which includes Panthera Leo Lion, Panthera Tigris, Panthera Pardus Leopards and Panthera Onca jaguars.

Consequently, the king of animals, and a striped predator, and spotted hunters are real panthers. The name, most likely, comes from the Sanskrit pandarab-"light yellow." The ancient Greeks adapted the word in Panthera, and it meant not only representatives of the cat, but all the animals as a whole, including mythological ones. Later, large cats were attributed to the panthers - and not all.

A distinctive feature of the species is a special structure of the larynx - thanks to flexible ligaments, predators can publish a rough roar, which makes the other inhabitants of the jungle or savannah. Therefore, a pum, for example,, although a serious cat, can be black, not a panther, since it growls in the wrong tonality. The recessive gene so where did large black cats come from?

They really exist, but not as a separate species, but as a genetic version of the color of a leopard or jaguar. In fact, this is the antipode of albinos - it is extremely rare for predators that can boast of such dark wool. By the way, if you look closely, it is not evenly black: with detailed examination on the skin, spots are clearly visible, and perfectly anthracite wool to animals in feature films and on advertising posters give retouges.

In order for a leopard or jaguar to be born black, it is necessary that both parents have this recessive genome. Hare habits are unknown how much the panther with the black color of the skin lives in the wild. These animals are hunting only at night. This is for the better - a meeting with such a beauty does not promise anything good. Panthers are not afraid of people and can easily come close to the village, thereby earned a reputation of forest ghosts among some peoples.

They climb the trees perfectly, as it should be feline, so monkeys can be their appetizer. Even the panthers swim perfectly, because of which even young alligators are worried. However, predators do not have to strain once again in order to have lunch: they have the ability to make a special smell, having heard which the victims themselves will come in claws. Famous panthers are absolutely black predators, silently stepping under cover of night, inspire the creators of the beautiful.

Well -known Bagira is well for us - one of the most striking characters of Redyard Kipling's books. By the way, the “Jungle Book” describes the male panther - turning the Bagira into a graceful lady with a sensual voice completely on the conscience of Soviet multipliers. The representative of the stronger sex is Pinky - the protagonist of the American animated detective farce "Pink Panther".

Well, new times gave the world another black panther - the hero of the cycle of films about superheroes. True, you will not work to admire the appearance of a cat, this is a person, and he, as usual, is in a suit. The natural habitat of predators is the tropical forests of Southeast Asia and Africa. In the middle band, you can admire the representative of the genus with a black color only in zoos.

In a separate building "Kaliningrad Region" of the Russia in Ethnomir project, a creative workshop, thematic products and a boarding house for the temporary maintenance of cats were organized.
