This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I don't know about that. I'm far from a biologist, but in Dutch a panther is just a synonym for a leopard, not the whole Pantera family. The word panther is more associated with the black pelt, but still only refering to the species of leopard.
