	Everglades Florida
		In his 1920 book, In Lower Florida Wilds, naturalist Charles Torry Simpson, wrote, "The greater part of Lower Florida was an unbroken wilderness....when I first resided in the state (in 1882) flamingos, roseate spoonbills, scarlet ibises and the beautiful plumed herons were abundant." The Everglades were still untouched.
		Seventy five years ago, Simpson concluded, "To-day most of its [south Florida's] hammocks are destroyed, the streams are being dredged out and deepened, the Everglades are nearly drained; even the pine forests are being cut down." Everglades watchers also noted, with increasing frequency, the decline of the herons, egrets and ibis.
		To prevent the trees on Paradise Key, a hardwood hammock known for its plant diversity, from being cut down and replaced with citrus, the Florida Federation of Women's Clubs purchased the land and gave it to the state with the provision that it would become a state park.
