Everglades - America´s Wild Spaces

The Everglades 1.5 million acres are home to some of the most unusual creatures on the planet - carnivorous plants, amphibious birds, fish that breathe air and cacti that grow in water. To better understand this remarkable ecosystem, National Geographic journeys by foot, airboat, helicopter and kayak to explore its hidden secrets.

As water is diverted to farmlands and rapidly growing cities of Florida, the Everglades and its many species are in danger. National Geographic goes beyond the tourist hotspots to explore the hidden reaches that few will ever see and examines the complex issues threatening the future of the Everglades and the extraordinary creatures who live within.
