FLORIDA'S ENDANGERED SPECIES
Florida, in the south of the USA, is a great place to be. There are beautiful beaches, swamps and
forests. Florida is home to the Florida panther, the American alligator and the Key deer. There is the
manatee, the green sea turtle and the roseate spoonbill. Sadly though, through a combination of
habitat loss, hunting and accidents, all of these animals are under threat.
The Florida panther was at risk as early as the 1900s after settlers killed most of the panther
population to protect their farm animals. As more and more settlers arrived, the panther had fewer
places to hunt and less to eat. Now there are probably no more than 180 left in the wild.
The loss of just one species has a serious effect on all the others. Take the Florida alligator, for
example. It is called a 'keynote' species. That means that they are important because they control
number of other species [usually by eating them!]. They also create 'alligator holes' - old nests that
are used by other animals. The alligator may be a 'keynote' species and it may be the official state
reptile of Florida, but it is still under threat from hunters who want its skin and meat. Without the
alligator, Florida would lose several other species.
There is some hope. The warm, slow-moving waters of Florida are home to the manatee, a large
seal-like creatures also known as the 'sea cow'. The manatee has been on the endangered list since
1967. In recent years, though, the number of births has been slightly more than the number of
deaths. This has increased its numbers. There is still a lot of work to be done before all these
endangered species can finally feel at home in their natural habitat.
