Did you know that Florida Panthers are Federally Protected under the Endangered Species Act and only around 200 are left in the wild? Florida Panthers face threats like habitat loss, vehicle strikes and diseases every day. Head over to our social media pages to learn about conservation and research efforts that help protect these incredible creatures.

Our biologists are committed to vital research programs that help us understand Florida panther behavior, habitat requirements, and population health. Through tracking, monitoring, and genetic studies, we’re learning more than ever about how to help recover this population for the future.
