Reptiles, Amphibians, and Fish. The largest swamp in North America, the Okefenokee Swamp covers roughly 700 square miles and is located in the southeastern corner of Georgia, encompassing most of Charlton and Ware counties and parts of Brantley and Clinch counties.he swamp has a distinctive and fascinating natural history. Cypress swamps, winding waterways, and floating peat mats are a major part of the Okefenokee's habitat mosaic. Wet and dry prairies, swamps dominated by shrubs, and forests of black gum and bay trees intersperse the array of other habitats.
Allie, one of our alligators in captivity here at the Okefenokee Swamp Park, has built a nest and laid eggs in it! From this remote location, we bring you online streaming for the first time ever of a gator nest and upcoming hatching. In general, American alligators do not reproduce in captivity and typically build their nests in remote swamp ponds. Allie has a different life plan. The hatching should be very exciting, especially considering that in the Okefenokee the hatch of a gator egg nest is naturally a dinner celebration for all sorts of swamp critters and a struggle for survival for the next generation of gators!
