These majestic felines are solitary and territorial animals that prefer densely forested areas, which provide ample cover and prey. Conservation efforts are crucial in preserving the dwindling population, which is estimated at around 120 to 230 adults in the wild. As an iconic symbol of the Florida wilderness, their survival is a prevalent concern in environmental circles, emphasizing the importance of habitat preservation and human-wildlife conflict mitigation.
