🦩 Ever wonder why there aren’t flamingos roaming around Key West?
Flamingos once lived throughout Florida, but hunting and the plume trade greatly reduced their numbers. Today, they’re a rare sight in the wild here.
But you can still meet two of Key West’s most famous residents, Scarlet & Rhett, at the Key West Butterfly & Nature Conservatory! 🌴🦩
A fun little piece of Key West history the whole family can enjoy!
