A black panther is typically a colour variant of any of several species of larger cat. In the Americas, wild 'black panthers' may be black jaguars (Panthera onca), while in Asia and Africa, black leopards (Panthera pardus); in Asia, possibly the very rare black tigers (Panthera tigris). Smaller wild cats, like jaguarundi, may also be black.
One sighting of the Macarthur Panther was near the "Sugarloaf Horse Centre" in Menangle.
It was reported that a young teenaged girl named Emilly was chased by a panther while riding her horse at the Sugarloaf Horse Centre.
"Emilly said she saw the creature while riding her horse at Sugarloaf Horse Centre in Menangle.
"'The first time I saw the panther, it chased me on my horse,' she said.
"'But I've seen it other times and it just hangs around then goes back into the bush. My friend Karrine told me she saw the same thing.'
In the first six caches there is a clue regarding the possible species of this panther. Record each and the cache number as it will be needed to find the final cache.
