WILDLIFE

Wildlife abounds within the campground/park and

the adjoining Sebastian River. The early evening

hiker on the nature trail may see a shy fox, bobcat,

or wild turkeys. During the day when it warms up

you may be lucky enough to see a Gopher Tortoise

out grazing. Perhaps you may hear the cry of an

Osprey or one of several species of owls that we

have here at dusk. Other wildlife may be seen in the

Sebastian River such as Manatee and playful

Porpoises.

There have been sightings of alligators from our

observation boardwalk as well. While we hope you

are able to observe some of the amazing creatures

we have during your visit, please be aware that

there is absolutely no feeding or contact of any kind

with wildlife. This is for your safety as well as that

of the animals. Feeding of alligators is also a

violation of state law.
