Encompassing 1.5 million acres, the Florida
Everglades are a wetland that is home to many unique and endangered species. Today
the students got an opportunity to explore a small part of those 1.5 million
acres. We started the day by taking an airboat ride through the sawgrass-filled
water. Captain Chuck was even successful in finding an alligator. The students learned more about some of the exciting animal inhabitants of Florida
including corn snakes, alligators, panthers, bobcats, and more. We finished the
day with a picnic-style lunch. It was an exhilarating day of exploration in Florida’s
natural tropical wilderness.
