Split Oak Forest is currently managed to enhance and preserve
the habitat of the gopher tortoise, along with the other wildlife
and plants that inhabit this diverse area. The site is under a fire
management program and visitors have a firsthand opportunity to
observe the positive effects this practice has on our native plant
communities.
Shane Belson of FWC gave permission for these caches and helped
with their placement. Placed under FWC permit GEO-29503.
