N.G. - Americas Wild States Wild Hawaii - Wild Florida (2013) Part 3 Florida Gator Country

Americas Wild States Wild Hawaii - Wild Florida

Wild Hawaii National Geographic takes us on an untamed journey to Hawaii, a place that transformed from a volcanic wasteland into a paradise on Earth through an alchemy of fire, ice, and water. Beginning around thirty million years ago, the Hawaiian archipelago slowly emerged from the sea as a volcanic wasteland. How these islands on land and under the ocean became a paradise, and how its creatures have adapted to Hawaii s transformative powers, is a story that defies the odds and challenges our expectations.

Wild Florida The coral islands, lush mangroves, and sandy beaches of the Florida coastline may seem idyllic. But for its wild inhabitants coping with continued development and human encroachment plus a host of natural predators the edge of the sea is a paradise filled with peril. Beyond the Magic Kingdom there is a savage side to Florida, a spectacular natural environment teeming with wildlife. With stunning cinematography two stories take us deep into this hidden wilderness, revealing an array of fearsome predators, wily survivors, and dangerous invaders as they struggle to live and thrive in this remarkable, sometimes violent, Eden.

Part 3 Florida Gator Country

Big alligators rule the inland waterways, where three young gator hatchlings struggle to survive their first year in the swamp. To earn the title of swamp king they must first elude an array of killers - venomous snakes, voracious predatory fish and even their own kind. On the bustling shores and among the strong currents of the Gulf Stream there is another savage paradise.
