There are TOO MANY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. THAT'S the source of literally all our problems.
Florida sucks
Dude in the thumbnail looks like hes wearing a peter thiel skin suit 😂
Born in Naples, and raised in Bonita Springs. So may beautiful places there. Corkscrew Sanctuary is one of my favorite places to visit along with Ding Darling wildlife refuge.
The pythons are killing everything
GULF OF AMERICA!
Hell we got black bears right here in the d*** woods.For walt beach niceville Valparaiso area
Lived here off and on for last 25 years. Only last year, I learned about the Springs.
I mean, I knew we have springs, but I didn't truly understand wtf we are talking about when we talk about Florida natural springs.
Its quite insane.
I'm not even going to rattle off stats, impressive as some rando reader here may find it…look it up yourself. Or don't. On further thought, its not that impressive, you totally shouldn't look into it..
Danny looking at himself in 20 years. 🤔😂
Amazing podcast, well rounded and a lot of useful information.
Can't believe how many great panther pics you got. Absolutely beautiful. I've been looking for the much more common bobcat for over 6 years with no luck.
Amazing pictures. I'm in Pasco county Florida and keep seeing huge, treed, wild areas completely destroyed. I'm always surprised how quick one guy with a tree eating machine can destroy a forrested area. Too bad developers dont go after all the empty bankrupt buildings and reuse those areas. Anyway, thank you for making the term wildlife corridor a thing everyone understands.
way more than 16 million. Ive personally ran into at least 1 million new illegals myself.
True Floridians know that the Road is killing all our little critters as well.
While this was enlightening & amazing there’s thousands of areas of American land that are at risk because of land development & human sprawling. People complain about birth rates but to be honest maybe we really should slow down & take more pride & have more respect for our land, wildlife & resources.
🥸
You have to factor growth against losses in population. Also population replacement figures and their trends are reported to be in a deficit.
He said Florida not taking wildlife corridor into account and then goes on to say that Florida passed laws protecting it?
Snakes have done irreparable damage to the ecosystem. on top of development, oil spills, etc…sad
Tired of all these ppl moving here. They will never experience Florida how we did growing up here. Can’t even go to the beach without sitting on a lap
1:58 this dudes hat tells you everything you need to know about him lmao
Boring!!!
Just think Trump is opening up the national attic wildlife refuge for oil drilling!! Crazy! Greed! Has to pay back the billionaire oil companies for their donations and bribes!!
I know I'm born in Florida and I live here, it's ridiculous the amount of people coming to Central Florida where I live, need to get them out of here man, I see if you weren't born in Florida you don't need to be here
Florida is a hole now. It’s a shame. It was an insanely unique place.
Notice ! FWC now forbids any game cameras and Drones to be in the area. They state it’s because the people walking in the preserve are complaining about being photographed. Sometimes I just wonder ! Keep up the great work, keep educating the population about what is going on in our beautiful state.
I have 22 acres in Fakahatchi why can’t I see any small game, like raccoons, squirrels, rabbits, possums? I have observed bobcat, Bears, some deer, numerous turkeys, alligators, daily. But no small game. Have been looking 🎉for the past three years and in three years I have only observed ONE squirrel! Recently a man and his dog was killed and then dragged off and partially buried, by a black bear in neighboring Jerome. FWC did get a bear , immediately, with remains proving they did get the right bear. A resident here stated they see 25 to 40 bears daily. But why no small game in my area ?
Real estate development is the debil.
Developers are destroying the animals' habitat. It needs to stop.
I was told Blue Origin is allowed to dump waste water in the Indian River Lagoon 😮! Patrick Smith the author of “A Time Remembered “ was a resident of Merritt Island in my country of Brevard. If you haven’t read it, please do. The story spans from 1857-1968 and follows three generations of a Floridian family.
