The Okefenokee swamp extends from Waycross, GA to the Florida-Georgia state Line boundary. It was the last piece of “untamed” Georgia area after the Civil War as the area was thought to be uninhabitable by humans.

The swamp served as a boundary between three Georgia Native American nations, a settlement for Spanish missions, a canal site, safe have for slaves and whites, a battleground between the Seminoles and the US Army, and a railroad/logging site (which destroyed a significant amount of the habitat).

To this day it is a federally-protected, indigenous wildlife sanctuary for many threatened and endangered species.
