Florida Panther Project leaders and community

OUR STORY

Community starts with seeing the individual.

Florida Panther Project Inc is a 501(c)(3) public charity committed to the long-term conservation of the Florida panther (Puma concolor coryi), one of the rarest mammals on earth.

With fewer than a few hundred individuals remaining in the wild, our work focuses on safeguarding contiguous wildlife corridors, advocating for safe highway underpasses, and educating the public.

We believe sustainable progress happens when people are treated with dignity, listened to with respect, and supported with dependable, transparent resources.
