Everglades

It is a World Heritage site, an International Biosphere Reserve, the most famous wetland on earth, and a cultural icon—featured in everything from Spiderman comics, to the classic movie African Queen. It"s America"s most controversial and endangered National Park, and—with $7.8 billion aimed at its restoration—it"s also the most political. The Everglades is many things to many people, but above all else, it is a wilderness—1.5 million acres of the most extraordinary and unique habitat. More than 1,100 species of plants and 350 species of birds live here for at least part of the year, and some of those species live nowhere else on earth. We"ll journey into this the Everglades on foot, by airboat, in a helicopter and by kayak to see what secrets this wild space is hiding.
