Why on Earth would it assume mean that, of all things, rather than “black panther”? If it's gonna be pedantic about it, it could've complained about “leopard” and “jaguar” already being there (which they were) instead of complaining about an animal that nobody in their right mind would call a “panther”.
There is no actual "panther" animal though, the word is used for several different animals (leopards, jaguars and pumas at least, I think).
They can all have melanistic coats and are then often called black panthers. But that's not a species.
