Protecting the Everglades with the Miccosukee Tribe l Your South Florida

The Miccosukee Tribe of Indians manages over 300,000 acres in the Everglades – land they have safeguarded for generations. For the Miccosukee Tribe, the Everglades is more than just land; it’s a vital part of their identity and heritage. But as the Everglades continue to face threats from encroachment, climate change and sea level rise, the Tribe is sounding the alarm for the urgent need to save it. We hear from the Miccosukee Tribe’s Deputy General Counsel Edward Ornstein and Hector Tigertail from Miccosukee Fish & Wildlife about the Tribe’s enduring connection to the Everglades, a recent $15 million grant to help tackle environmental challenges, and why this fragile ecosystem is vital for the health and future of the Miccosukee, and all residents of South Florida.
