A panther and an opossum walk into a backyard....

Did you know? Virginia opossums account for roughly 5% of a Florida panther's diet, according to Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Lucky for this opossum, this panther was uninterested in a late night bite.

Witnessing a Florida panther is a special treat, though one of Florida's most iconic species, only around 120-230 remain in existence. 

Habitat loss, fragmentation and degradation all threaten this species, but among the biggest threats: vehicle collisions. 

We've been fighting to help this species for years and our fight continues until their numbers are recovered and steady.
