Black Panther

My favorite big cat, the black panther, is such a unique and majestic creature.

Snow Leopard

In the silent snow the leopard goes, Where the silver mountain wind still blows. Soft through drifts where no one knows, A ghost that walks where winter grows.

Bengal Cat

In the golden light the Bengal plays, Spotted fire in a jungle haze, Soft paws dance through leaves and grass, A wild little shadow that moves so fast.

Tiger

In the jungle's heart the tiger roams, With stripes that blend in forest homes.

Lion

Roar in the sunrise, king of the plain, mane in the wind like a golden flame. Stomp to the rhythm, proud and strong, Larry the lion sings this wild song.

Leopard

Fun fact: regular leopards are incredibly strong climbers and often drag their prey up into trees to keep it safe from lions and hyenas.

Cheetah

The fastest land animal on Earth.
