Answer: "Noah Bishop Crime Unit " series

Answer: "The Wild" series

In this particular series of books, the heroes and heroines can shape-shift into leopards. It is a very secret species that has almost died out.

Answer: "The Ghostwalker" series

This series about psychically gifted and genetically enhanced humans has all of those abilities and more. Whitney, the mad scientist that started it all, scoured the world looking for the psychically gifted female orphans and took them to his orphanage where he forced them to perform test after test and trained them as killing machines so that he could pair them with his genetically and psychically altered soldiers so that they would make a race of super babies that would be under his control.
