Florida Panther DRAFT Scientific Review: Analysis of scientific publications related to the Florida Panther

Beier P, Vaughan M, Conroy M, Quigley H. Florida Panther DRAFT Scientific Review: Analysis of scientific publications related to the Florida Panther

A critical review of the literature related to ecology and management of the Florida panther. The Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) recently appointed a new Florida panther recovery team to revise the panther recovery plan. To support this revision and to assist the recovery team in setting priorities, FWS and Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) commissioned an independent critical review of literature related to ecology and management of the Florida panther. The four authors of this report were recruited to conduct the review. The main objectives of this review are to identify strengths and weaknesses of existing data, previous analyses, and published interpretations of data and analyses related to the panther, and to recommend future analyses and research priorities. To support our review, we were asked to produce an annotated bibliography of Florida panther literature. We were asked to include all scientific publications, including unpublished reports, related to conservation and management of the Florida panther.
