Hurricane Katrina destroyed approximately 217,000 acres of land, including wetlands and coastal areas along the Gulf Coast. This resulted in significant ecological damage and loss of habitat for numerous species. Efforts to restore and protect these areas are ongoing to mitigate the long-term impacts of the disaster.
