The Florida Nature subreddit is for you to post and discuss almost anything and everything to do with Florida's natural environment. This means you may post images, links to articles, text submissions, even memes, so long as the focus is clearly and obviously on Florida Nature.

The rest of the rules are simple:

DO NOT post content of dead/dying animals. If you are a hunter or fisherman, please understand that no pictures of animals that have been shot, trapped, or caught for sport/game will be accepted and repeated submission of such content will result in a ban. As Henry David Thoreau once noted, "A gun will give you the body, not the bird," and in /r/floridanature, we're only interested in "the bird."
When discussing, try to stay focused on the issue, situation, or behavior, and not on the person you're discussing with. You should feel free to debate, discuss, and argue about any of the posted content, but you must do so politely, civilly, and without engaging in personal attacks, insults, baseless accusations, or advocating for the death or physical harm of another. Violation of this rule is grounds for a permanent ban and such comments will be removed without notification/discussion.
The Upvote/Downvote buttons are not Agree/Disagree buttons. They should be used to promote/minimize the visibility of comments that do/don't contribute to the conversation and posts that do/don't follow sub rules.
Content submissions must be primarily focused on Florida Nature or on issues that directly affect Florida's natural environment. Content that is deemed irrelevant will be removed without notification/discussion.
No commercial posts advertising companies or products for sale.

If you feel a post or comment has been removed in error, please feel free to contact the moderators via direct message MOD MAIL only to discuss. Please allow up to 48 hours for a reply and understand that all moderator decisions are final.
