"A beautiful, powerful cinematic cry for help to save the real wild Florida before it is too late"
"Wild Florida's Vanishing Call" is a moving inside look at what has happened to wild Florida with a compelling, emotional soundtrack that carries you through the past destruction of wild Florida to beautiful footage of rarely seen native wild animals including the most endangered cat in North America, the Florida Panther. We must protect Florida's native wildlife habitat before it is too late.
