Got carried away and drew the whole subfamily instead of just the genus Panthera. oh, well, the Neofelis references were too good to exclude them.

[ID: digital drawings of each member of the subfamily Pantherinae (according to Wikipedia) as if they were done in a notebook page. There's handwritten text. The title reads "Pantherinae" in all caps, below, there's writting in Spanish: "Subfamilia de mamíferos carnívoros de la familia Felidae", which translates to "Subfamily of carnivore mammals of the Felidae family". Each drawing has their corresponding scientific name. From left to right and top-down: "Panthera tigris", a tiger in the water sticking their tongue out; "Panthera leo", two lion cubs, one of which is rasing their paw and trying to touch the other one with it, the other cub is just waiting for it, there's a little note below between asterisks that reads "does this to you". "Panthera onca", a jaguar in the water with their eyes closed and seemingly smiling, there's a little hummingbird near by; "Panthera uncia", a snow leopard holding their tail in their mouth, they look angry, thus the note below that readas "'nojao" in Spanish, which could translate to "angy". "Panthera pardus", a leopard cub pulling from their mother's tail; "Neofelis nebulosa", a clouded leopard sticking their tongue out, "Neofelis diardi", a Sunda clouded leopard, also sticks their tongue out, looking at N. nebulosa as if they were trying to imitate them.

My art print, showcasing all big cat species (Panthera, Neofelis, Puma, and Acinonyx), is now available in my store. This includes the two Clouded Leopard species (Mainland and Sunda), which were recognized as distinct species in 2006.

This is not AI. Every illustration took me about 10 hours. To see the process check out my Instagram here: Instagram

Phylogenetic wild cat tournament

Panthera lineage

Genus: Neofelis - Final

Depth: 4 (3 wins away from championship)

Similarly to the leopard cat and the sunda leopard cat from the very beginning of this tournament, the clouded leopards are sister species respectively from mainland Asia and southeast asian islands (Sumatra and Java). There are only a few, hard-to-spot differences between them:

"The canines on the Sunda clouded leopard are even longer than seen on the mainland clouded leopard, and they have more dots in their cloud-shaped markings than mainland ones." (source)

Theriotype List

So, to start out, for context, I think we've all seen a skeptic comment about how all therians are only "cool" animals. I personally have always enjoyed keeping up with those with "rarer" theriotypes and even using them as examples when these kinds of arguments are brought up, so I've decided to do a little bit of a personal project, that being creating a huge list of the wide variety within the therian community. Below is the list I've created so far, sorted by general species, then adding in subspecies/breeds, all in alphabetical order.

Please keep in mind and understand that for now, I am only putting Earthen animals on this list, mainly so I and the post can keep up, because there's a LOT here already and I know there are hundreds more out there. Maybe in the future I'll make another list with mythical/fictional/etc. kintypes, or someone else can do that for me, you have my full permission, just let me know, but for now, just Earthen animals.

This list does, of course, need more entries though. If you have a theriotype that you don't see on this list, please comment or reblog and let me know so I can add it! You can follow and find it with the tag "foxskys theriotype list".

Sunda clouded leopard fun fact: Sunda clouded leopards have been classified as a separate species from clouded leopards since 2006. They are able to climb down tree trunks head first! (Source: animalia.bio)

Eurasian lynx fun fact: Eurasian lynxes are the largest of the lynxes! They are very sneaky since they make very low sounds. (Source: National Geographic kids)
