From the text...'To many people, the thought of Canaveral National Seashore conjures up images of long stretches of pristine beach or spectacular NASA shuttle launches. Not as well known is the fact that the Seashore contains one of the most productive inshore fisheries on the entire eastern seaboard, over 100 archeological sites, and the second largest number of federally-listed Endangered and Threatened species in the entire National Park System. Fourteen species of protected animals inhabit the 24,000-hectare (59,300-acre) park.'
