Abstract
Esta publicación forma parte de la serie de hojas informativas Wildlife of Florida, creada para ofrecer al público una introducción rápida y precisa a la vida silvestre de Florida, incluyendo especies nativas e invasoras. Esperamos que estas hojas informativas te inspiren a aprender más sobre uno de los mamíferos más raros de Florida, la rata arborícola de Key Largo, así como a explorar la fauna que habita en tu comunidad y a comprender la increíble biodiversidad del estado de Florida.
