夕阳使得佛罗里达州的大落羽衫国家自然保育区沐浴在橙色的光芒中。这片保留地,720000英亩(291375公顷)位于佛州西南沿海的沼泽地,是神秘的佛州豹与一大群不同种类令人难忘的鸟类的家园,此外还有很多其他特别的动植物种群。但是人类在该地区及其周围的开发已经到了足以威胁打破这里脆弱的生态系统的地步。

Sunset bathes Florida’s Big Cypress National Preserve in an orange glow. The preserve, 720,000 acres (291,375 hectares) of primordial swamp on Florida’s southwest coast, is home to the elusive Florida panther and an impressive diversity of birds, among other unique fauna and flora. But human development in and around the area threatens to send this fragile ecosystem into a tailspin.
