Please accept my apologies for being gone for so long. Between family and my own illness and the group not being active I've somehow hit rock bottom. BUT, not with the Panthers. I plan on sharing this group with FB in the coming year, and getting more movement happening for them. I have done some things on there and find that people respond a lot more, so I will be in touch again when I do make the move. In the meantime, please continue to advocate for our beloved big cats, they will be needing us now...
