Posted by: TOM_CRUTCHFIELD at Mon Mar 22 16:28:16 2010 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by TOM_CRUTCHFIELD ] Fifty years ago MOST of the Glades were devoid of Cattails. Now the nutrient rich water that flows south due to the channelization of the Kissimie River and then flowing through the sugar cane areas have made Cattails one of the domininate plants while out competing the used to be dominate Sawgrass. The sheetflow needs to be restored as much as possible but if you really look at the obstacles in the way I don't see how it will ever be possible. It saddens me that my home state I love so much has changed so much in the last 50 years. Some species have increased in number since I was a kid [Panthers & Black Bears for instance] but they have no way to expand as there are NO wildlife corriders. We are way OT and I apologize but I really love the Glades and hope that the people with the power will make good decisions in the future..
