The cats in this category are famous for their roaring ability. This ability is due to the condition of their larynx. The laryngeal structure has hard hyoid device suspensory which is connected to the skull base. In addition, this big cat has a large vocal muscle, a thick mucous layer that makes its rounded vocal folds become single with large cricothyroid musles membrane long and narrow until their vocal fold reaches a length of 9 mm. That is why their roar is heard more often than cats in the Felinae category.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"IN\">The name Pantherinae as a subfamily in the Felidae family was first discovered by Reginald Innes Pocock, a British zoologist, in 1917.
