The Everglades is a unique and expansive wetland ecosystem located in southern Florida. It spans over 1.5 million acres and is home to diverse wildlife, including alligators, panthers, and a variety of bird species. Known for its slow-moving waters, vast sawgrass marshes, and cypress swamps, the Everglades is often referred to as the "River of Grass." It's a vital part of Florida’s natural landscape, providing water and habitat for many species, while also serving as a crucial filter for water that flows into the region's coastal areas.
