Sabine National Wildlife Refuge
The northern Gulf of Mexico is a broad plain stretching from north Florida to the edge of the Yucatan of Mexico. Across this region, broad saltmarshes spread across the Gulf plain. Here John visits Sabine National Wildlife Refuge in southwest Louisiana, USA, to look at some of the special features of the region — alligators, salt domes, ancient Pleistocene oak cheniers, and the work of fires and hurricanes — to discuss the challenges and threats that the people and species of the region face now and for the future.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Sabine National Forest is located in East Texas near the Texas-Louisiana border. The forest is administered together with the other three United States National Forests and two National Grasslands located entirely in Texas, from common offices in Lufkin, Texas. There are local ranger district offices located in Hemphill.
The forest covers a total of 160,873 acres (651.03 km2) in five counties - Sabine (95,410 acres), Shelby (59,037 acres), San Augustine (4,317 acres), Newton (1,781 acres), and Jasper (64 acres). It includes the officially designated Indian Mounds Wilderness, which is a part of the National Wilderness Preservation System.
The Sabine National Forest is notable for extensive forests of American beech and other hardwood trees. Other important tree species include loblolly pine, longleaf pine, shortleaf pine, white oak, southern red oak, sweetgum, and Florida maple.
The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) helped the Texas Forest Service develop the forest between 1933 and 1940. CCC Company 893 established camp near Pineland, Texas on June 14, 1933 and planted pine seedlings in the southern part of the forest. These men also built roads and fire lookout towers and completed the Red Hills Lake Recreation Area near Toledo Bend Reservoir. CCC Company 880 established camp near Center, Texas on October 26, 1933 and planted thousands of pine trees in an area that became the northern part of Sabine National Forest. The CCC built the Boles Field Campground, including a pavilion and amphitheater, in the forest near Shelbyville, Texas.

Sabine Ranch: Adding To Texas' Land Legacy
With the support of our donors and partners, The Conservation Fund acquired of more than 12,000 acres of a privately owned ranch in southeast Texas, known as Sabine Ranch. In doing so, we helped preserve extensive wetlands and coastal prairie, save threatened and endangered species, and create new opportunities for public recreation, including hunting, fishing, hiking and bird-watching.
Without action by The Conservation Fund, Sabine Ranch would have been sold for non-conservation purposes and subdivided, fragmenting the wetlands and continuing to limit public admission for years to come. This past April, we transferred the first phase of the property, more than 8,100 acres, to the adjacent McFaddin National Wildlife Refuge.
