Alligator Alcatraz' immigrant detention center poses serious risks, including hurricanes, flooding, and mosquitoes, experts say.

Alligator Alcatraz, as the state officially calls the facility, lies in the Everglades about 40 miles west of Miami International Airport and halfway to Naples. Over the past week, the DeSantis administration built the detention camp in the idle airstrip, which the state seized, using its emergency powers.

Florida has converted an isolated airport in the Everglades into a massive immigration detention center called "Alligator Alcatraz."
