This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I somehow threw Jaguars in with the lynxes which would have meant that a black panther that's acutally a Jaguar would have been a lynx. Idk what befell me there... Jaguars are Panthera, too, so my "might" is not true. Black Panthers are Panthers.
