A mangrove is a shrub or tree that grows in coastal saline or brackish water. The term is also used for tropical coastal vegetation consisting of such species. Mangroves occur worldwide in the tropics and subtropics and even some temperate coastal areas, mainly between latitudes 30° N and 30° S with the greatest mangrove area within 5° of the equator. For this episode of #WildlifePhilippinesPodcast, Palawan State University talks about interesting information about mangrove tree.
