Join host Jeff Corwin in Florida to explore the remarkable conservation success of the American crocodile. Once near extinction with only 100 adults, their population now exceeds 2,000 in Southern Florida, thanks to the Endangered Species Act and dedicated efforts. A surprising sanctuary for these reptiles is the Turkey Point nuclear power plant.

The plant's 6,000-acre site, particularly its 10-square-mile network of cooling canals, provides ideal, secure nesting habitat. Wildlife biologists from Florida Power & Light and Defenders of Wildlife monitor and tag hatchlings before releasing them, ensuring the species' continued recovery. Protecting these apex predators is crucial for the entire Florida ecosystem. Learn more at defenders.org/wildlifenation.

Join host Jeff Corwin to celebrate the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and its profound impact on wildlife. The bald eagle, once critically endangered, now thrives as a powerful symbol of conservation success, thanks to the ESA. This landmark 1973 bipartisan legislation protects vulnerable species and their ecosystems.

Corwin visits Florida's Boca Raton beaches, a vital nesting site for sea turtles. Conservationists Elizabeth Fleming and David Anderson demonstrate how habitat protection is crucial for species like loggerheads. Excavating a nest reveals successful hatchlings, underscoring that safeguarding their environment allows these keystone species to survive. Six of the world's seven sea turtle species nest in America, all protected by the ESA. Learn more at defenders.org/wildlifenation.
