Sandhills habitats are VERY dry.		Many sandhills habitats have been turned into pine plantations or housing developments.
						Large stands of longleaf pine, which often grow in the sandhills, used to be common in the southeastern U.S.
			Southern hognose snakes have become rare in places where they used to occur.
			Sandhills habitat is really ancient beaches and dunes from when the ocean was higher—millions of years ago.
