Defenders of Wildlife, Friends of the Florida Panther Refuge, the Fish & Wildlife Service and other conservation partners are teaming up for a week-long series of events to celebrate the Florida panther.
Join us during Florida Panther Week in southwest Florida with a kick-off event at the Naples Zoo on March 15th. Spend a fun-filled day learning about these highly endangered cats through zoo exhibits and activities. You can also meet with Defenders staff, agency biologists and others actively involved in panther conservation.
The week of festivities wraps up on March 21st with Save the Florida Panther Day at the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge near Naples. Explore important habitat for these great cats on the Duncan Memorial Trail or on a guided field trip or two.
Events held throughout the week provide opportunities to learn about the wildlife and habitat found on the refuge and nearby public lands.
Starting March 9th, you can RSVP for field trips and presentations by calling (239) 353-8442 x239 or by emailing events@floridapanther.org.
