Also, what the heck happened to the Panthers? Asking for a friend.

"A major problem with the panther is that due to persecution, the panthers are now in a very small population that leads to inbreeding. The main factors of their mortality rates are collisions with vehicles and territorial aggression amongst themselves; however the largest threats to the population is habitat loss, habitat degradation and habitat fragmentation.
ReplyDeleteRecovery efforts are underway to conserve the population however this is difficult since a breeding unit (one male and two to five females) requires 500 squared km; therefore 240 panthers require 31,000 squared km and enough genetic diversity to prevent inbreeding, therefore such a large area will be hard to get hold of.
