Everglades_Florida
SBH was kind enough to send us pictures from her recent trip to the Sawgrass Recreation Park in the Everglades, Florida.
A 30 minute group airboat tour runs about $20-25. (By the way, that’s not a group airboat below, it’s just a picture of an airboat).
Can you see the alligator?
Can you see him now?
The first airboat tour of the day leaves just after 9 a.m. and the tours continue to operate every thirty minutes throughout the day until the final airboat leaves at 4:30 p.m. We recommend that you and your group show up no later than 3 p.m. so that you may visit the animal exhibits first and then take the final tour of the day.
Over 10,000 islands make up the Everglades.
These are alligators in the Everglades, there are no crocodiles. Don’t know how to tell the difference? The easiest thing to remember is that you can see an alligators teeth when its mouth is closed.
You can visit the tour website here and see all of the pictures here. Remember, the Everglades are an endangered habitat and the home of 68 threatened and endangered species. For more information and how to help you can check the Everglades Foundation. Only about half of the original Everglades remains and 90% of the bird life has been killed by human activities.
If we don’t do anything to protect the land and the birds of the Everglades, they won’t be left for future generations to see. Questions and such you can holla in the comments.
Thanks SBH!
