Seal, U.S.
Genetic management strategies and population viability of the Florida panther (_Felis concolor coryi_)
1992  Conference Proceeding

The Florida panther is one of the most critically endangered taxa in the United States. Population declines and associated inbreeding have resulted in significant losses in genetic variability and viability. Natural gene exchange existing historically between the Florida panther and other North American puma subspecies is no longer possible because of human induced isolation. Successful recovery of the Florida panther is doubtful without a reinstitution of lost gene flow.
