Big Cypress Swamp: The Western Everglades 

Grew up fishing all over the Glades in 50s 60s and 70s. It IS a spiritual place. I truly love the Glades and the memories I have in my heart and soul of this wonderful place.

Born in Miami 1950, grew up in the Glades, thank you for saving the Alligator, Rosetta Spoon Bills, Flamingos. For us, the old Floridians again, thank you for Saving our Everglades.

Shark River Valley, must be restored. From Flamingo up to Hell Bay. I miss my home, thank you Dad. Miss you Dad, thank for your teaching ❤ us how important this river of Grass is. ♥️👍♥️

The greatest documentary I ever seen on Everglades national park !! Narration man is amazing !! Music background is amazing ! And relaxing !! Thank you sooooo much for this amazing great film !!

Glad to hear Peter Thomas’s voice he is my favorite narrator, listen to him all the time on forensic files

The Everglades is my backyard I love this. Thank you for sharing! Trying not to focus on the destruction mankind has done but the conservation we can still do

I feel the magic of the Everglades and I live in the SW Dessert of the US.

Thank god for people with conviction.

Cool video. I haven’t worked up the courage to snorkel in the dark.

This is proof that when the people get together for a good cause, anything is possible.....we need that attitude today...

Fantastic program.

Beautifully done documentary ❤

I love love LOVE this video! I listen to it whenever I cannot sleep…. it’s so relaxing and no commercials, and makes me want to head that direction! Do any of you locals have anything to say about when PHISH did a show there? If you are not familiar, they draw a very big crowd, some with tickets some not with tickets……. just wondering who might have what to say about that event🤙🏽

Thank God Joe got everybody together on the same page against the jetport. It would have ruined the Everglades and made it even worse than it is now

In Fl ,been to the Everglades many a time. I just could never picture that beautiful Seen being anywhere else but there.

I was born in S FL. Dad took us out in the Glades when I was little. It's definitely a Spiritual place. Once you fall in love with it, you never forget it. It's a hard place but you feel the connectivity. Good things are being done to restore / protect but somehow, we just don't trust mother nature enough to allow free flow. Big Cypress is in better shape than the Glades because we took the flow away from the Glades. If somehow the pumping stations stop, the Glades will die.

Not greedy " shit look at it now.not greedy people right.but to the people who live there.hats off to you.

Home ❤ loving all these

Thanks , very good.

Ospreys, being chased by a leopard ray while swimming in clear water, My Good LORD the mosquitoes at a certain time will bleed you dry! Horse flys bit you through lounge chairs. I loved it!!!❤ Introduced to snook🤤 The atmosphere and scenery is just breathtaking!!!

Beautiful place, and there are many places thru out florida that are public land with mixed use. Go visit them all!

Bless this land.

Awesome video

Beautiful Documentary! thank you for sharing!

Music was slapping on this video 😊

As a Notthern plansplant who has landed in St. Augustine,thank you. Each and every ONE of you souls who fought for what is right and just. Again,thank you❤️💛💚

AMEN !!

Why not a chip? Collars get hooked and they kill. Seen it to may times on too many different animals. Hooked on a branch or fence they're stuck and die from exposure. No water, food and in the elements.... shame and happens way to often. Found a friend's dog hung himself on a runner cable. Looked soo safe. Had a 40x 40 chain link a nice dog house trees. But he went on a vacation and had a neighbor looking out. He'd put the dog out at day and in at night . But one night he ran around the dog house and the cable got stuck them tried to jump on to it. When he went back down . It was on the wrong side and the cable was too short. Shame ,just didn't see that coming on a cable 20 ft long.

They eventually did kick people out of their hunting cabins which they swore they would never do though

YEAH I 100% AGREE TO PRESERVE FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. WE MUST LEARN NOT TO SUCCUMB TO HUMAN EXPANSION WITHIN NATURAL NATURE. IT THERE FOR A REASON 😊❤😂💪💪💪

In Hawaii the Brazilian Pepper is called Christmas Berry. It is invasive there also.

Beautiful but some errors IMO. Marjory Stoneman Douglas was not just an "author", she was an activist and heavily involved in the saving of this area.

Forensic files???

So instead of southwest, they got the mid east florida. And wiped out this wonderful forest that used to exist over here

FYI The Miccosukee and Seminole fled into Florida and the Everglades during the collapse of the Creek Confederacy.

All should belong to seminole natives

Enviroworship

People aren't native here.. we don't sprout out the ground

Towards the end of the video the guy that claims to be an Indian is not Indian but a Mexican you can tell by his accent and the way he and his family look. He is claiming to be Indian tobise ad an advertisement to better his business. At least that is my opinion. I live in NJ and there are tons of Mexicans here.

This crisis is boring. May we please have another?
