Black Panther sighting
 

St.Tammany Parish Sheriffs Dept. has confirmed pics of a black panther in Covington,La! Ive seen them in this area several times and nobody ever believed it and most argue theres no such thing as a big black cat in America at all! It was on the news 10 minutes ago if anybody wants to chk it out.
Anybody else see any before?

Pics are it didn't happen

this aught to be good.

I dont know how to do all that crap on a computer,Im sure someone on here can get on the news website and copy pic to here?

Here you go.....

That's crazy!!!!

:rotfl: That a freaking house cat!!!!!!!!!!:p

This lol. People will do anything to try to get in the news. There is no such thing as a black panther lol. Was Bigfoot taking the pic?? Lol they should inform people bout his existence too!

If that's a panther, I'm Bill Gates!

Ok, I have never been one to believe all this panther jazz, HOWEVER I know 2 of the workers who saw this and believe them. My office building is across the street from where it was spotted. They actually saw it yesterday and today. Same guy is going in the AM with a Video camera. I didn't see it(only bad pics) but tend to believe these guys.

The pic from the link above screams good zoom and average cat. That's just an opinion, I must add!

Again, pics i saw are in no way no doubters.

Corey, come by tomorrow.. My puter is broke and I need some money



In other words, that's a big black panther!!!

If its true, I hunt about 20 or so minutes west in Robert. That dam quickdraw will be coming with regardless.

I am no professional but that is definitely no panther. Here kitty kitty kitty. House cat! Is that Bigfoot behind the bush

Yup

If in any case it's a big black cat it's probably someones black jaguar that got out.

I used to work with a guy from Reeves who said they had one in their barn one night. Not sayin fact, just sayin I heard it.

A lotta dem black cats transplanted after Katrina

House cat

I really don't understand the sarcasm from all the skeptics concerning panthers. They have been roaming around Amite County, Miss. for at least 25 years that I know of. Ask any wildlife agent in that area. I watched one for an entire season (85/86). She would bring her litter of cubs to a beaver pond every morning to drink and then slip away. By the way , the fine back then was about $25K for killing or harming one...

wonder what the fine is now for shootin one? either way If I get a shot its dead so I have proof!

There are several CONFIRMED published sightings of cougars in Louisiana.

None of which have been black.

Looks like a black house cat to me. IF it is NOT a house cat, it is an escapee.


Anyone wanna bet some salty cash on it?:D

I would NOT shoot one, but if you do you better have some claw or teeth marks in you:smokin:

It looks like my cat blackass. Lol.

That would be correct. No sightings of 'black' ones...

My dad and uncles have seen them around the bayous near where they grew up in Palmetto. I also have two buddys that have seen them once back around Praire Ronde. I myself cant claim to have seen them, but I have seen trail cam pics.

Are you talking about black ones. Cuz I think there are just as many "confirmed" sightings of big foot. I think we all know there are cougars in Louisiana. But never ever anywhere on this continent has there been a confirmed picture of a black cougar. I don't think there is such thing. A girl I went to school with had a pet jaguar and it was black. But not a cougar.

This one deff looks like a house cat though.

Nope, no black ones. Only at the zoo:*****:

Seen 'em at de Civic Center after da storm

Last year there was an article in the Lake Charles American Press about a wildlife agent that responded to a call of one that had attacked a horse at someones home in GrandLake. They had pictures of the horse and several accounts of the incident by the owners of the horse and the wildlife agent.

Not sure if the same one or not, but someone called about livestock that was killed by a 'wildcat' and the story went to the newspaper and everyone was bashing LDWF for not doing a thorough investigation. The head of the Wildlife Department wrote the newpaper a letter saying there was absolutely no need for an investigatio because the pictures told the entire story. The cow or horse got tangled up in barbed wire and it bled to death once it freed itself. The headlines were something like 'wildcat on the loose'!:smokin:

this is true my dad knows the guy that this happened to, and he saw the pictures of the horse.

So may non-believers...:shaking:

I 100% believe in cougars in Louisiana no doubt.

Whenever someone tells me of a panther sighting, I listen, however, as soon as anyone mentions a BLACK panther it completely discredits the story:)

Well, I will take the word of my own father and uncles any day of the week.

Are we talking BLACK panthers or just panthers?

I was told "black", so thats what I tend to believe.

If you can produce a trail cam pic of a black panther in Louisiana, then there is no argument, I bet all my salty cash you can't though



some people claim to see pink dolphins, so:grinpimp:

I got this one earlier this season...

haha, too funny!

lmao!!!!!! That's funny

I have never seen a black panther or a cougar in the wild, but i still don't rule out the possibility of a black panther being out there.

I think they got em. Actually I never realized that it was more myth than fact until I read this today. I have always heard stories of them and accepted a long time ago that they exist in Louisiana.

Where's your deer lease, Mozambique?

There also was one that was in a neighborhood in bossier city a few years ago that wildlife agents and bossier police responded to. As the wildlife agent tried to shoot it with a tranquilizer it ran down the tree it was in and the police officer shot and killed it.
