White tigers, like this one, are leucistic rather than albino. Albinism is a complete lack of pigment, whilst leucism results in reduced pigmentation.

The fishing cat (Prionailurus viverrinus), native to Asia. As its name suggests, it's fond of water and commonly eats fish. This is a captive one, photographed at Exmoor Zoo.

The jaguar, third largest of the cats after the tiger and lion. A magnificent and powerful predator ... with a cute little tongue. :)

The jungle cat (Felis chaus), found in Asia and the Middle East. This photo is so old I can't actually remember where/when I took it (it was taken on ACTUAL FILM and scanned into the computer).

DID YOU KNOW? The "black panther" is not a species of its own. It's just a term used for melanistic leopards and jaguars (though it originally only applied to black leopards). This is a black jaguar from Chester Zoo.
