Fen
Wetland Variation
Fen is a specific wetland, usually less acidic than a bog.
Unlike the murky waters of a bog, this fen was clear and full of life.
Biodiversity Hotspot
Fens can be ecological treasures with diverse plants and animals.
The fen was a birdwatcher's paradise, with species rarely seen elsewhere.
Environmental Concern
Due to their ecological importance, fens are often protected areas.
The new wildlife preserve will protect the fen from industrial development.
