Florida Panther Preservation Initiative

Safeguarding the Future of Florida’s Iconic Big Cat

Why Panther Preservation?

  • Habitat Fragmentation: Rapid urbanization divides essential habitats, limiting panther territories and genetic health.
  • Human-Wildlife Conflicts: Vehicle collisions are a leading cause of panther mortality, requiring dedicated wildlife infrastructure.
  • Critical Conservation: Panthers are a keystone species essential to supporting balanced ecosystems in Florida.

Our targeted solutions include:

  • Habitat Corridors: Finding and protecting land parcels critical for panther movement and survival.
  • Wildlife Infrastructure: Advocating safe wildlife crossings and fencing to reduce vehicle collisions.
  • Scientific Monitoring: Using advanced technology and research to inform proactive conservation strategies.
