The Florida panther once roamed the entire southeastern United States. But hunting and loss of habitat eventually reduced the species to 20 animals-and put it on the edge of extinction. The latest book in the Animals in Danger series, Florida Panthers combines scientific information with the dramatic story of the big cat's comeback. Illustrations and extra features like maps and a glossary fill out a portrait of a species at the top of its ecosystem. The text details how scientists, photographers, and others have worked to guarantee the Florida panther's survival in the present and future
