The male panthers are 150 pounds and can measure about seven feet long. The female panthers are smaller than the male panther. The female weighs about 100 pounds. They prey on raccoons, armadillos, and alligators for a change in their diet. Eating small animals would harm the panthers, and they won't chase their prey for a long distance.
Panthers live in Lake Okeechobee in Florida.
They live in the forest but often they roam out into public. The Florida Panthers usually get killed by cars and trucks almost everyday. In the past century it was a habitat loss for the panthers that was their enemy, and that was one of the reasons for decline of the Florida Panthers. Sadly nothing can be done to prevent them from roaming out into the public. They continue to roam because humans are trying to develop the land.
