A new and dangerous animal has arrived in the Everglades. What is it? How many are out there? Could it spread beyond the Glades? Deep in the national park, a field biologist, a museum re-constructor, a park ranger, an intern, and two journalists – a photographer and a features writer – along with a surprising quiet partner look for answers while politicians and opportunists try to turn the situation into money-making ventures for themselves.
I like the combination of mystery and science. A great overview of the ecological changes in the Everglades due to invasive species. An easy read, and very well written.
