You’re looking at a satellite view of Florida’s Everglades, the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States. It’s not a static wetland, but rather a ‘river of grass’, a slow-moving river 60 miles wide and 100 miles long. Keep zooming in and you’ll likely see mangrove trees, tropical birds and an alligator or two. Among the myriad interesting things about this unique and fragile ecosystem – it’s the only place in the world where American alligators and American crocodiles co-exist. How do you tell the difference between the two? Well, you see one later and the other after a while.
