New Additions to the Environmental Poster Series

The Loxahatchee River District is pleased to announce the next four posters in its environmental poster series.

Prominently featured is the Eastern Oyster poster that details the life cycle and habitat requirements, benefits as a habitat for wildlife, and the benefits of improving water quality. This poster is an excellent tool for educating the public about the importance of oyster reef restoration in our communities. This project was funded in part by The Nature Conservancy and NOAA.

Three additional posters detail the life history of two key fisheries species: Bonefish, Tarpon, and the mysterious Land Crab. Focusing on the importance of habitat preservation and fisheries management, these posters show how these species utilize different habitats and diets throughout their life cycles. These posters were funded by The Nature Conservancy.

We hope that you will use the posters to help further educate the people in your communities about the importance of protecting habitats and species vital to our ecosystems.
