Big Cypress National Preserve South Florida National Park | Exploring Florida | Vintage Documentary

In 1993 Kris visited the Big Cypress National Preserve in Southern Florida to speak with Deborah Jansen about the a Red-Cockaded Woodpecker & traveling through the preserve. In 1974, Congress established the Big Cypress National Preserve as a national preserve – not a national park – a distinction that allows traditional activities such as hunting and Off-Road Vehicle (ORV) use to continue within the preserve’s boundaries. With 729,000 acres, Big Cypress offers an enticing oasis for recreation and sport, but this land is also a key player in keeping the various natural water systems of South Florida balanced. Big Cypress is a haven for Florida’s elusive, but endangered panther population, a homestead for the endangered American alligator and is only one of two places on Earth where the ghost orchid can be found. An official Dark Sky Place, Big Cypress is the first National Park Service unit east of Colorado to earn this designation and to this day still remains the southernmost Dark Sky Place in Florida – and in the US. The swamp waters move gently through this national preserve, providing the perfect combination for the preserve’s namesake cypress trees to grow tall and strong, creating a maze beneath their canopy for the visitors who are more inclined toward aquatic adventures. Big Cypress represents one of the last wild places in South Florida where swamp buggies, airboats, and backcountry camps preserve a traditional way of life established by native peoples and the pioneering spirit of early settlers. To say that Big Cypress has something for everyone would be an understatement, so now we are challenging everyone to offer something back to Big Cypress in return.
