  • On January 17, 2012, the Florida Wildlife Corridor Expedition team kicked off a 1000-mile expedition over a 100-day period to increase public awareness of the need to protect and restore Florida's wildlife habitat. Bear biologist Joe Guthrie, conservationist Mallory Lykes Dimmitt, photojournalist Carlton Ward Jr., and filmmaker Elam Stoltzfus trekked from the Everglades National Park toward Okefenokee National Forest in southern Georgia. The team traversed the wildlife habitats, watersheds and participating working farms and ranches, which comprise the Florida Wildlife Corridor opportunity area.

    I wonder how this video impacted the laws in the state, if any. This is 2023 and all we see is developers having an endless grab of the land, disregarding all elements that make this land so beautiful. Lawmakers in a happy marriage with developers.
    Thank you for showing such amazing ecosystems. And yes, we are stewards of the land, even in our tiny space call home and surrounding spaces; we should keep them clean and as little as possible undisturbed.

    Beautifully filmed... watched several times in-spite of it troubling my soul trouble.
    I wonder if the folks in the film and the camera crew ever look in the mirror.. I mean really look in the mirror ...
    Grateful someone was decent enough to highlight the indigenous folks...,
    To hear the Cuban guy say how grateful he is to be in the US a country that afforded him access and privilege,
    My dad died recently 86, he quietly held his anger and resentment, he worked his entire life, when we were kids growing up in Slidell, Louisiana he’d take us crabbing .... the white folks were so prejudiced... we’d fine a place near the water.. white folks let us know we weren’t welcomed , next time they’d put up signs prohibiting where we could crab, there was nowhere to go. Dad often told us how black folks were denied the right to shrimp, oysters ...etc. ....
    This is a beautiful documentary but troubling to me ...

      Care to clue us in on specifically what it is you find so troubling? Based on the context, and condolences for the loss of your father, Im going to reason that it has something to do with the fact that these guys are white? If that be the case Id have to counter that if someone is devoting themselves to positivity and a cause that is good then why the hell does it matter what shade of human that person happens to be? And by any chance were the places you went crabbing located on private property?

    Real estate has killed florida it's hardly even left anything.. I only had to live here forty four years to experience the devastation of florida... I'm completely blown away. Hurricanes on top of that ... And brush fires that have consumed forest. But real estate has probably been the worst to devastate Florida.

      They have a trace of texas in them sure. The population at one point was so small that inbreeding became a serious issue so a handful of the texas cats were brought in and if Im not mistaken actually removed after a few years of breeding. The original range of the florida panther was actually out as far as Louisiana and Arkansas.
