Biscayne National Park By: Madison Presler
Facts Biscayne national park is a wonderful place.. This water wonderland is over 90% water! Within this park there is an extensive mangrove forest along the shoreline, a portion of the worlds third longest living coral reef and the northwest Florida Keys. Popular activities include boating , snorkeling, camping, and wildlife watching.
Threats Biscayne National Park, which encompasses two-thirds of Biscayne Bay, faces issues that arise because of its proximity to the burgeoning population of Miami-Dade County. Boats running aground on coral reefs or in seagrass beds can severely damage these ecosystems. Protected manatees and sea turtles, which are often near the surface, are also at risk of being hit by boats. Boaters need to be educated to be aware of their surroundings at all times and use extreme caution in shallow areas to avoid damaging underwater resources and wildlife.
