Some of the largest mangrove systems in The Bahamas, however, were devastated by Hurricane Dorian as it made landfall, causing unprecedented loss of mangroves in Abaco and Grand Bahama. While there has been some natural recovery after the storm, recovery has been minimal in many locations covering thousands of acres of both islands after three years. In this
