Sunrise seepage slope
Seepage slope bogs are a critically endangered habitat that are mostly found along the lower Gulf Coast of the Southeastern US. Over 97% of these habitats have been destroyed in the past century by human land uses, particularly industrial pine silviculture. Their rich floral diversity depends on frequent fire to keep woody shrubs from encroaching and shading out old-growth perennial herbs such as the white-top pitcher plant (Sarracenia lecuophylla).
