Which is the coolest big cat?

Leopard? Cheetah? Tiger? Puma? Black Panther?

I'd go for Tiger. Big and bitey and the same pattern as a Capri's seat covers.

Oh yeah. But is that a white lion or a snow lion?

White lion. Im not sure an actual snow liom exists, what with them being African...

FattyNinjaOwl · 29/09/2015 08:55

According to Google a snow lion is a mythical creature.

I don't count mythic animals such as snow lions and Topcats.

The Liger. Cross between a Tiger and a Lion. Sterile, but it's probably for the best, because they are HUGE.

Racundra · 29/09/2015 09:10

Black panther, no contest.
Ocelots are cool too (obviously just outed myself as female with that comment).

Are Ocelots big enough for the big cat(egory)? I'd have called them a medium cat.

Racundra · 29/09/2015 11:32

Grin but they are very good looking meph!
I think they fall under panthera genus, so I'd say big cat.

MephistophelesApprentice · 29/09/2015 12:14

Ah, well, then I vote Ocelot. Babu always remembers me...

Sorry. Ocelots are not big cats. A big cat is a cat that could in theory be ridden by a regular house cat, ideally when dressed up as a little jockey.

It has also come to my attention that a panther isn't a species but the name given to a black variant of a jaguar or leopard. Panthers are off. Please re-cast your votes if you picked panthers

The Lion. Always the Lion. They don't call him King of the jungle for the nothin'!

I am paralysed by the majesty of this image.

murphys · 29/09/2015 14:23

Well I think its the white lion. Just because I played with four of them last weekendWink. They were six weeks old. Both pairs of brown lions just shagged the whole time while we were there....

My vote goes for the cheetah. Fastest land animal on the planet, it can accelerate faster than a Ferrari thanks to a cool flexible spine.

Stace2015 · 15/10/2015 12:36

Lion! 100% Such majestic beautiful creatures.. i sometimes look like one when i wake up! ;)

EightAce · 15/10/2015 15:52

Jaguar. Without question. Whoever heard of a 5 Litre supercharged V8 Ocelot? Or an E-Type Leopard?

Because the could not get close to replicating the power of the amazing cheetah.
