Florida Everglades Alligator Farm, Florida USA - Pink Planet



Video Title : Florida Everglades Alligator Farm, Florida USA - Pink Planet
Description : This video of Pink Planet takes you to the Florida Everglades with Bill, which is a subtropical marshland located in the southern portion of the U.S. state of Florida, specifically in parts of Monroe, Collier, Palm Beach, Miami-Dade, and Broward counties. This 5000 year old geological formation comprises the southern half of a large watershed arising in the vicinity of Orlando known as the Kissimmee River system. It has been called a "River of Grass" because of the slow flow of water from Okeechobee southward and the predominance of a sedge known as sawgrass. Slightly elevated points in this extremely flat area are covered with trees, usually cypress and red mangrove. Approximately 50 percent of the original Everglades has been lost to agriculture and urban development. Most of the rest is now protected in a national park, national wildlife refuge, and water conservation areas. Water from the Everglades is still used as a water supply for the South Florida metropolitan area. The Everglades is crossed from west to east by a toll road called "Alligator Alley", now part of Interstate 75. Everglades National Park preserves the southern portion of the Everglades (all south of Tamiami Trail), but represents only 27.3% of the original area. The Park covers 2,357 mi² (6,105 km²) and is a World Heritage Site. The only highway access is the State Road 9336, running 47 miles (73 km) from Florida City to the coast at Flamingo. There have been recent expansions to the park's tourist facilities to bring in more money to Florida's economy such as a massive extension to the visiting center, many outposts along the bridges that span the Everglades that teach people about the many birds and other wildlife native to the Everglades as well as a small petting zoo.
