The Florida Wildlife Corridor Expedition team has trekked through scrub, swamp and forest from one end of the state to the other.

Their goal is to highlight the need to protect lands that connect Florida's wild areas. This week on Florida Matters we meet the explorers and discuss their third expedition, which gets underway later this month.
