Crocodiles, panthers, and manatees are among the endangered species that live in Everglades National Park in Florida. A group of islands off the coast of Florida are called the Florida Keys.

In West Virginia, coal mining is an important industry. In Williamson, there is a house made completely of coal. The coal used to make the house was donated by local coal companies. The house was built in 1933 and weighs sixty-five tons. There are at least three buildings made of shiny black coal in the state, but the Williamson Coal House is the only house to be made entirely of coal. The building is now the home of the Tug Valley Chamber of Commerce.

Those born in the late summer or early fall can live up to nine months. They have a wingspan of up to 4 inches! They are considered one of the most beautiful butterflies in North America. Make your own version of a Monarch. You can use any color you wish!
