A swamp is a wetland that is forested. Many swamps occur
along large rivers where they are critically dependent upon
natural water level fluctuations. Other swamps occur on the
shores of large lakes.
Just think of this tree in relation to when Columbus sailed
the ocean 1492.
“Swamps occur...large rivers where they are critically dependent upon
natural water level fluctuations. Other swamps occur on the
shores of large lakes.”
And then there is THE Swamp which occurs in the center of Washington DC. Inhabited by monstrous swamp creatures which are destructive, proliferators and are very difficult to remove.
