📣 National Park Highlight On May 30, 1934, Congress authorized the creation of Everglades National Park to protect its one-of-a-kind ecosystem. While it wasn’t officially established until December 6, 1947, today marks the beginning of its journey as the first national park created to protect a fragile ecosystem rather than a scenic landscape. From its slow-moving “river of grass” to its rare wildlife and cultural significance, the Everglades remains one of the most unique places!
