LOL. The first hit I got on a web search was a school report posted online: http://www.wheatland.k12.wi.us/animal%20sites/Aaron's%20stuff/aaron.html

"Panthers eat large prey like deer or hogs. 90% of the panther's diet is hog, white tailed deer, raccoons and armadillos. Occasionally they eat rabbits, rats, birds, and on certain occasions they eat alligators."

People commonly call the black leopard a black panther, or in some cases a black panter. Leopards are very opportunistic animals and have an extremely flexible diet. They will consume protein in almost any form, from beetles up to antelopes twice its own weight. It readily eats carrion, and caches sizeable kills in trees, returning nightly to feed on them. Their main diet consists of over 30 different species including: medium sized antelopes (reedbuck, impala, Tommy's gazelles) and the young of larger species (topi, hartebeest, wildebeest, zebra) as the primary food sources, with hares, birds and small carnivores rounding out the list. They have even been known to include the occasional baboon in their diet.

They will eat fish and domestic stock such as goats. They are capable of killing apes. They will even eat carrion, scavenging tiger kills.

A black panther is just a melanistic leopard, and they eat the same prey animals that other leopards eat, mostly small to medium size grazing animals like antelope.
