Government Efforts to Protect Habitat for the Florida Panther on Private Lands
EDIS, 2016 Endangered Florida panthers live and breed on state and federal lands in south Florida, but they are a wide-ranging species, and the habitat available to them on public lands is not enough for them to thrive and recover.

De Novo Assembly and Annotation from Parental and F1 Puma Genomes of the Florida Panther Genetic Restoration Program [PDF]
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019 In the mid-1990s, the population size of Florida panthers became so small that many individuals manifested traits associated with inbreeding depression (e.g., heart defects, cryptorchidism, high pathogen-parasite load).

Dracunculus sp. PantanalBr Infection in Florida Panthers and Bobcat, Florida, USA. [PDF]
Emerg Infect DisWe used morphologic and genetic methods to analyze subcutaneous worms removed from endangered Florida panthers and a bobcat in Florida, USA, identifying Dracunculus sp. PantanalBr and several Dirofilaria spp. worms. Dracunculus sp. PantanalBr had been previously reported in a domestic dog and a jaguar in Brazil.

Reproductive impairment in the Florida panther: nature or nurture? [PDF]
Environ Health Perspect, 1995 Many of the remaining members of the endangered Florida panther (Felis concolor coryi) population suffer from one or more of a variety of physiological, reproductive, endocrine, and immune system defects including congenital heart defects, abnormal sperm, low sperm density, cryptorchidism, thyroid dysfunction, and possible immunosuppression.
