Miccosukee Tribe wants ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ — but Miami doesn’t have the land back
The Miccosukee Tribe seeks to conserve the 'Alligator Alcatraz' site in the Everglades, but Miami-Dade County cannot transfer the land as it remains under state control. The DeSantis administration seized the land last summer, delaying the county's plans to sell or transfer it for environmental protection.
