Everglades Facts, Everglades Pictures, Everglades Animals, Everglades History and Everglades Projects -- All Just a Mouse Click Away

When does a greater understanding of the threatened wetland ecosystem that we know as America's Everglades lead to unified efforts to restore and protect it for future generations?

How do the fragile habitats within the Everglades ecosystem bounce back after suffering debilitating damage associated with rapid human population growth, drainage and pollution?

As website visitors navigate this site, we hope that the Everglades Foundation not only provides audiences with up-to-date information on the latest news associated with the restoration of The Swamp, but also facts about other Everglades ecosystem areas including Everglades National Park, Florida Bay and the Big Cypress National Preserve.
