The Everglades
The Everglades are the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States. One of North America's wild unsung places, the wetlands boast rare and endangered species such as the American crocodile, Florida panther and West Indian manatee.
The Everglades National Park contains 25% of the original Everglades marshland region of Southwestern Florida.
Designated an International Biosphere Reserve, a World Heritage sight and a Wetland of National Importance The Everglades remain a place of great beauty and mystery.

For much of its past, charted exploration of the Everglades was prevented by the dense growth of sawgrass and the rainy climate, creating its mysterious reputation. The easily navigated waters surrounding the everglades have been filled with sightings of mermaids throughout history, most folklore experts believe that what the sailors were really seeing were the air-breathing manatees common in this region.
Although humans have lived in the area for thousands of years, it was not until 1848 that the region began to be drained for agricultural or residential use, and water flow from Lake Okeechobee was controlled and diverted to the South Florida Metropolitan area.
