Staats Island
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not to be confused with the Staats Island in Rensselaer County, New York.
Staats Island is one of the Falkland Islands, lying between Beaver Island and Weddell Island, parallel to Tea Island. It is known for its Patagonian foxes and guanacos, both introduced species; the former is not to be confused with the closely related Falkland Islands Fox now extinct. Other wildlife on the uninhabited island includes Magellanic penguins and other sea birds.
