I was lucky enough to grow up in SW Miami (Bird Rd. and Coral Way) during the 60s and 70s. My dad got me into herping as a child, and I got to see things that will never be seen again. I could ride out to Betty and Johnnys on my bike. I remember when there were practically no gators at all. In Fla City around 68 or 69, it was easy to see 6 or more Indigo's a day. I have walked up on a waterhole off the Loop Rd. during extreame drought and seen 200 snakes at once. Sadly, those days will not come again.
