And a deer hunter killed a calico cougar(white and tan spotted, no black) around grangeville idaho a couple years ago. There were several pictures of it in the local papers. In one area I hunt the majority of the bobcats I catch have at least a couple white toes and two I have caught had white stocking feet. I keep hoping one day I'll catch a albino bobcat there but no luck.

I have seen black panther which are of the leppord family npt of the couigar family/ but in tn. NOW I KNOW what I saw because it was just like the picture of the melannisticleopard . As you can see the differance easely between the first 2 different cats of three photo`s . What its doing here in TN. I havent a clue of how it got there and their is a pair of em. The female is maybe 9o lbs but the male is pretty darnd good sized.

well the physical evidence is out there in several forms, you just need to go research it for yourself before dismissing it.

Bowhound; A couple of those pictures that surfaced to prove that there were black longtails in the USA did prove their existance. However they turned out to be black ferals and not cougar, leopard, or Jaguars. Altough it is said it is possible for a mutant color phase to exist, it is next to impossible for a gene pool to exist that would carry the black trait forward.
It is also possible for an imported black cat to have been released into the wild that may produce a black offspring but again very unlikely.
My Father drove a gasoline tanker for years in central Florida and swears he saw an african lion in the Ocala National forest, locally called "the scrub". He was setting in the road as he came around the curve and left the road and into the brush in one leap. He was spotted a couple more times by others, then disappeared. No one reported killing him, he just disappeared.
