Everglades National Park is a national park in the state of Florida. The largest subtropical wilderness in the United States, it contains the southern 25 percent of the original Everglades marshland region of southwestern Florida.
Unlike most other U.S. national parks, Everglades National Park was created to protect a fragile ecosystem instead of safeguarding a geographic feature. Thirty-six species designated as threatened or protected live in the park, including the Florida panther, the American crocodile, and the West Indian manatee. Protecting the largest U.S. wilderness area east of the Mississippi River, the park is the most significant breeding ground for tropical wading birds in North America, and contains the largest mangrove ecosystem in the western hemisphere. More than 350 species of birds, 300 species of fresh and saltwater fish, 40 species of mammals, and 50 species of reptiles live within Everglades National Park. All of southern Florida's fresh water is recharged by the park, including that of the Biscayne Aquifer.
Crocodiles coexist with alligators in Everglades National Park, the only place in the world where they do so naturally. An alligator is a crocodilian in the genus Alligator of the family Alligatoridae. The name alligator is an anglicized form of the Spanish el lagarto ("the lizard"), the name by which early Spanish explorers and settlers in Florida called the alligator. There are two living alligator species: the American Alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) and the Chinese Alligator (Alligator sinensis).

O Parque Nacional Everglades é um parque nacional norte-americano localizado na porção meridional dos Estados Unidos, no estado da Flórida. É a o única área sub-tropical preservada da América do Norte.O parque possui uma flora tanto sub-tropical, como tropical, e é muito conhecido pela sua grande quantidade de pássaros, além dos jacarés e crocodilos.
Os jacarés ou aligatores são répteis da família Alligatoridae da ordem Crocodylia. São animais muito parecidos com os crocodilos, dos quais se distinguem pela cabeça mais curta e larga e pela presença de membranas interdigitais nos polegares das patas traseiras. Com relação à dentição, o quarto dente canino da mandíbula inferior encaixa num furo da mandíbula superior, enquanto que nos crocodilos sobressai para fora, quando têm a boca fechada.
lol Nice video. (: I live about 30 minutes away from there. I've been to it before, really nothing special, but interesting in a unique kind of way. Looks quite different in this video than it did when I was there years ago, but a few things are the same. The straw-built roofs on the buildings for example.
de exelente qualidade e criativo vale como um belo documentario
