The Florida panther, Florida's state animal, was nearly driven extinct by rampant development in South Florida. Thanks to the conservation efforts of federal and state agencies, these secretive cats have slowly stepped back from the brink of extinction.

Big Cypress National Preserve contains some of the panthers' last remaining habitat.

Frightenengly, this safe haven is now threatened by a massive oil boom, which could be devastating for Florida panthers.

For today's Daily Action, tell the National Park Service and Fish and Wildlife Service to say no to massive oil exploration and development.

Right now, legislators are trying to pass legislation that would allow overfishing and eliminate deadlines to rebuild fish populations. If this moves forward, the health of ocean ecosystems will be significantly harmed!

For today's Secondary Action, tell Congress not to allow destructive overfishing.
