A visitor to Phetchaburi's Kaeng Krachan National Park took pictures of two black panthers this week.

The park visitor -- identified only as Amy -- saw the two panthers while she was travelling in a car on her way to Khao Phanoen Thung forest mountain in the national park.

Amy then stopped the car to take photos and a video of the two panthers.

The animals apparently showed no signs of being frightened by her car. The panthers then disappeared into the jungle.

Previously, some other groups of visitors had in January and February spotted and taken pictures of a black panther in a nearby area while they were heading to the same mountain in the park.

According to a study conducted by national park researchers from 2013 to 2023, approximately 10 black panthers and leopards were found in these areas.

Park visitors should stop their cars and remain still if they meet a panther or leopard, ensuring safety for themselves and wildlife. Taking pictures of these wild animals is allowed, but people are advised not to exit their car while attempting to photograph them, a park official said.
