The shallow waters of marshes and swamps make calm, quiet homes for many animals and plants. Wetlands are especially protective of wildlife's young. Some marsh creatures grow up to inhabit the sea. Some birds fly away from their nesting grounds. Many more animals spend their lives where they started out -- in a marsh or a swamp.
