The Florida panther is a majestic animal that we know is becoming or on the verge of being extinct. So many of these panthers are getting run over by cars speeding through not paying attention. We all have busy lives and are always living a fast pace life, but that gives us no excuse for so many of these fatalities. Around FGCU I have noticed they have crossing signs for wildlife. I think that is great that we can be cautious of the areas we need to drive slower. There needs to be stricter regulations of the areas where the cats take habitat. People aren't going to change their ways unless you put ticketing in action. If we are honestly concerned for these panthers, then we need to take action. We can't simply just want change without being proactive. If we have more strict policies on speeding and take more action on watching our surroundings and then we will be able to see a decrease or all together eliminate these fatalities.
