pantheress
Big cat, female
A pantheress is a female panther.
The term follows the pattern of other animal feminines like lioness and tigress, though it sees relatively little use since panther alone typically serves for both sexes.
When it does appear, it often carries literary or poetic overtones, evoking sleek power and dangerous grace.
