The Everglades National Park The Everglades are a natural region of tropical wetlands in the southern portion of the U.S. state of Florida‚ comprising the southern half of a large watershed. The Everglades are shaped by water and fire‚ experiencing frequent flooding in the wet season and drought in the dry season. Like most regions with this climate type‚ there are two basic seasons - a "dry season " (winter) which runs from November through April‚ and a "wet season" (summer) which runs

1.CANCER Cancer /ˈkænsər/‚ known medically as a malignant neoplasm‚ is a broad group of diseases involving unregulated cell growth. In cancer‚ cellsdivide and grow uncontrollably‚ forming malignant tumors‚ and invading nearby parts of the body. The cancer may also spread to more distant parts of the body through the lymphatic system or bloodstream. Not all tumors are cancerous; benign tumors do not invade neighboring tissues and do not spread throughout

The Everglades ecosystems contain a diverse environment that stretches from the middle of the Florida peninsula to Florida Bay. The Everglades consists of endless marshes‚ towering palms‚ alligator holes‚ dense mangroves‚ and tropical fauna. Fire‚ water quality‚ and geology are just a few of the natural factors that help shape the development of the Everglades‚ with frequent flooding in the wet season and droughts in the dry season (Everglades‚ 2013). Although many natural occurrences take place

snakes were originally pets that were either dumped or escaped to the Everglades. These pythons are well adapted to live in Florida‚ the environment here is similar to their Southeast Asian home. Pythons were determined to be and established species in 2000. Burmese Pythons can live 15 to 25 years. Female pythons can carry a clutch of up to 100 eggs. Pythons are wiping out mammals in the Everglades. Going to the Everglades it was always common to see such animals as rabbits‚ foxes opossums‚
