- Pine Rockland Composition - 7/2010 - a film by Jennifer Brown featuring Pine Ridge Sanctuary
This is a 30 minute film (212 MB file m4v) made by Jennifer Brown as part of her MFA in Science And Natural History Filmmaking at Montana State University. It has taken Jennifer 2 years to produce this film all about the endangered Pine Rockland ecosystem and the way it interacts with residents and researchers in South Florida. The movie can be viewed using iTunes or QuickTime Player. This is a large file and may require some time to download on your computer depending upon the browser you use - Opera starts to run almost immediately, but IE requires some extra time.
- Unexploited Pine Rocklands of South Andros video - Ecostudies Institute - 6/7/2010 - (68.4 MB Flash .swf file) - this is a very informative video (can be viewed using RealPlayer) made by John Lloyd and Gary Slater of the Mount Vernon, WA based Ecostudies Institute when they were surveying South Andros in 4/2010. Ecostudies Institute is a non-profit scientific organization whose mission is to improve the understanding of ecological systems and promote conservation, management, and restoration to protect and maintain native biodiversity. The South Andros Pine Rocklands that have not been rock plowed or harvested are probably the closest ecosystem to Pine Ridge Sanctuary except it has a different Pinus species.
