IMMOKALEE, Fla. — A fourth panther has died in 2025, according to wildlife officials.
The FWC updated the Panther Pulse, which noted that they found the remains of a 4 to 5 year-old male Florida panther, on March 10.
It was 1.6 miles north of the intersection with SR82 in Collier County.
Officials believe a driver hit and killed it.
If you have spotted an injured, sick or dead panther, you are asked to report it to the FWC Wildlife Alert Hotline at 888-404-FWCC (3922).
Florida residents can support panther conservation efforts by purchasing a "Protect the Panther" license plate. Fees from license plate sales are the primary funding source for the FWC’s research and management of Florida panthers.
