Honey Island Swamp
Honey Island swamp is one of the least-altered river swamps in the United States. Considered by many to be one of the most pristine swampland habitats in the United States, the Honey Island Swamp covers an area that is over 20 miles (30 km) long and nearly 7 miles (10 km) across, with 34,896 of its 70,000 acres (280 km²) government sanctioned as permanently protected wildlife area. This swamp is also the home of the legendary Honey Island Swamp Monster, which has from time to time been known as the Tainted Keitre.
