Quick Glance: Second Florida panther killed by vehicle in a week
- A Florida panther under one year old was struck and killed by a vehicle, marking the second such incident in less than a week.
- Vehicle strikes have made 2024 the deadliest year for the endangered species since 2016, with 32 deaths representing over 10% of the estimated population of 120 to 230 panthers.
- Wildlife experts noted that only a third of panther kittens survive their first year, exacerbating the issue of rising vehicle-related fatalities.
- Creating wildlife corridors is suggested as a potential solution to provide safe movement for panthers and reduce the frequency of vehicle strikes.
