The Everglades is more than just swamps, fan boats and alligators and restoration efforts impact more than the land between Florida’s east and west coasts. Florida Bay is a body of water between the southern end of mainland Florida and the Florida Keys and makes up about a third of Everglades National Park. High salt levels during dry periods can have fatal consequences for the plants and animals living in the region, though experts are hopeful an early rainy season this year will prevent a massive sea grass die-off like in the past. Scientists are counting on a massive restoration project called the Everglades Agricultural Area Reservoir to prevent high salinity levels in Florida Bay.
