Florida is home to many different types of wildlife ranging from mammals to birds to reptiles and more. Chances are slim that our residents will come into contact with wildlife at our Alachua apartment community, but just a few miles away, in the depths of Florida’s woodlands, rivers, and lakes, the native animals roam freely. Learning about the wildlife that also calls the Sunshine State home can be a fun way to spend free time in your apartment at One 51 Place.

Some of the most notable and interesting animals that are native to Florida include:

• American alligators
• Red-tailed hawks
• Coral snakes
• American river otters
• West Indian manatees
• Florida panthers
• American black bears
• White-tailed deer
• American beavers
• Jamaican fruit bats

If you do want to venture out into the wilderness and try your luck at spotting some native Florida wildlife, the nearby Ocala National Forest is one ideal place for our residents to go.
