RE: Mangroves stuff

Mangroves are so fickle and fragile. It is good to see that these are healthy. So often, they're neglected, though.
Locally, there are some Mangroves on public land, part of a national park sort of thing. They have been dying (due to human causes) for... several years. And no one wants to do anything about it.
It isn't like that land is good for anything else - it is, after all, a place that links to the salt-pans, which means that ecologically, its just doing what it does.
So much bird habitat is gone because of this, and so much biodiversity, too.
That's pretty sad. Good thing this is a marine protected area, and now knowing they're fragile it makes sense. I love that even on the main island, they seem to not touch the mangroves as well.
