This protected area protects a number of native plants and animals associated with this habitat. The Preserve also serves as a great place for UNF faculty, staff and students to enjoy a quiet hike or to view wildlife while on campus. In addition, the area provides UNF a unique opportunity to conduct hands-on environmental research.
