The land I have my eye on is a few hundred acres of woods in SW Florida that is only accessible by dirt roads. I want to claim it and turn it into a preserve to save it as it is. I have been looking at it for many many years and noone ever goes back there except for people target shooting and fisherman. It is surrounded by canals on all 4 sides .

In my state you have to live on the land and maintain it for a minimum of 15 years before you can claim it as your own.
Even then, you have to go to court which is not cheap.

The only thing I can find for squatters is the legality of them moving into vacant buildings, nothing about land.
