Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), weight loss photos, posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. Weight loss photos go in /r/loseit, DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

[–]straitodenim 25 points26 points ago

Jaguar.

[–]SpelingTroll 3 points4 points ago

From wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panther)

  • Panther (in Africa and Asia), the leopard (Panthera pardus)
  • Panther (in North America), the cougar or mountain lion (Puma concolor)
  • Florida panther, a subspecies of cougar (Puma concolor coryi or Puma concolor couguar) found in southern Florida
  • Panther (in South and Central America), the jaguar (Panthera onca)
  • Black panther, a black variant of leopard, jaguar or cougar

Panther is a proper term for jaguar. Merriam-webster agrees with me. American Heritage Dictionary too.

Panthers are always black...

The patterns on the cat actually show that it would be a Jaguar (not a leopard since the skin tones never get this dark for leopards). I'd love if someone had more information on the transfiguration though.

[–]coldsilverd 2 points3 points ago

Actually, it IS a Jaguar, not would be. There is no such species as a black panther. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melanism

[–]NAKEDwithCHEESEwhiz 5 points6 points ago

there is, however, a pink panther.

[–]NAKEDwithCHEESEwhiz 2 points3 points ago

[–]jubbing -1 points0 points ago

That's wrong - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_panther There may be black Jaguars and Black Panthers

[–]iamasociopath22 0 points1 point ago

Panther is derived from Panthera, while it is mostly used to describe black big cats, it's also used to call pumas that. (cougar). And jaguars and leopards can get that dark which is why they get the special name.
