Panther Facts
Life History: Although we call them Florida panthers, these shy cats once roamed throughout the entire Southeast from east Texas to the Atlantic and north to parts of Tennessee.
Overhunting, loss of habitat, and reduction of their primary prey reduced their population to a remnant living on the southern tip of Florida.
They prefer upland habitat but will use diverse habitats. They mainly prey on deer and hogs.
