Panther gets to explore at Lowry Park

November 16th, 2007 | Category: Tampa Blog

Calusa "Lucy" explored her habitat at Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo that dawn.

She arrived at the zoo on Aug. 8 after being found abandoned by her mother in the Big Cypress National Preserve. Friday was her moment day in her

new habitat after treatment at the zoo’s hospital.

"She’s hugely entertaining at that point," said zoo veterinarian Dr. David Murphy. "And yet she has a huge conservation letter."
