Red Mangroves, Thailand
Red mangroves grow along the shore of Thailand’s Lipe Island, one of many offshore islands included in the country’s Tarutao Marine National Park, off the western coast in the Strait of Malacca. Mangroves are an essential part of the marine ecology in many tropical areas of the world, providing estuaries for wildlife nesting and feeding.
