California shut down hotels, theme parks and tourist attractions for more than a year, essentially closing the nation’s top tourist destination as a public health strategy. Florida’s tourism industry barely skipped a beat, launching advertising campaigns to draw visitors throughout most of the last year.The deer, bobcats, coyotes and bears no longer have to deal with the hordes of camera-toting tourist vying to capture nature.
