Panther Creek is a large creek (or small river) in the U.S. state of Illinois. It rises near Minonk, Illinois, and after flowing southwestward approximately 26 miles, discharges into the Mackinaw River near Eureka, Illinois. The largest town in the Panther Creek drainage is El Paso, Illinois.

] The creek flows through a region of intense corn and soybean cultivation, formerly part of the Illinois Grande Prairie. Together with the rest of the Mackinaw River's drainage, the creek ultimately feeds the lower Illinois River.

The Mackinaw River "Panther Creek" should not be confused with a much smaller Panther Creek, in Cass County, which flows through the Jim Edgar Panther Creek State Fish and Wildlife Area.
