I went searching for interesting facts of the animals and plants as that was what I actually had to search for to contribute to the PowerPoint for the group. I surfed the net and found many interesting facts of plants and animals in the mangrove conservation.
First I searched on the mangrove animals and found out that their roots may be scary at night as the tree seem to be standing on many legs, next, I saw that ferns also can be found there and I saw that ferns were actually around earth for two hundred million years before flowering plants evolved.
Then I searched for animals and found that saltwater crocodiles can use their tail to propel most of their body out of the water and once the fiddler crab loses its larger claw, the smaller claw will grow to be the larger one and the smaller one will grow back, and the most interesting thing is they cannot swim. And a new born swamp wallaby is just the size of a tiny jelly bean and which I think is very adorable. Mangrove conservations are really getting interesting to me.
