Nature | Springs Eternal: Florida's Fountain of Youth - Life in Florida's Spring

In this video from Nature, learn about the diverse life in Florida’s springs. Due to the warmth of the water, Florida’s springs teem with life from migrating sardines to mangrove snappers, a salt-water fish that cannot normally survive in fresh water. Migration to the water attracts various predators including eagles, osprey and alligators. As a life-or-death measure, the very gentle manatee takes refuge in the warm waters that rarely dip below 68 degrees Fahrenheit.
