Proposal
The Florida Panther is an endangered species of panther that only inhabits southern sections of Florida primarily around the Everglades. Their habitat has been slowly degraded over decades to the point where their groupings are becoming more clustered. This can be problematic as their social behaviors are known to be solitary and territorial animals. This aggression could lead to even more Florida Panther destruction and endangerment. The purpose of this poster is to show the grouping and habitat loss of these creatures and take data from ther movements to see if their social interactions are being forced to happen more often or not.
