The American Amazon may be the world’s best kept secret. Join us, on an epic journey across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, and the Carolinas, to discover the untold stories, hidden biodiversity, and rare beauty of North America’s last unseen wilderness. This is an ancient oasis – anchored by two-thousand-year-old cypress trees. A labyrinth of flooded forests and pulsing arteries. A place buzzing with new revelations: from the mass migration of the world’s only social raptor, the swallow-tailed kite, to the cryptic behavior of the American black bear. Where big mysteries still tread around every corner of the swamp. Tales bubbling up from crystalline springs and emerging out of serpentine blackwater rivers. Today, the secret is out. Four years in the making, American Amazon takes us into the untamed heart of the deep South – to forever change our relationship with our one-of-a-kind backyard. It’s a celebration long overdue. We will save this place only by sharing its unique stories, reconnecting its wild spirit, and illuminating its natural wonders – for all the world to see.
