() President Donald Trump is expected to visit Florida’s controversial detention center dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz” when it opens Tuesday, a source familiar with the matter told .

The immigrant detention center, fast-tracked by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, is located deep in the state’s Everglades wetlands.

The facility will include temporary structures such as heavy-duty tents and trailers to house detained immigrants. The state has estimated that by early July, it will have 5,000 immigration detention beds in operation.

Environmental groups fear the site will harm the Everglades’ ecosystem, which is teeming with massive reptiles, including alligators and Burmese pythons.

DeSantis has touted the area’s wildlife as a positive: “Clearly, from a security perspective, if someone escapes, you know, there’s a lot of alligators. No one’s going anywhere.”

Some Native American leaders claim the center encroaches on sacred land. There are 15 traditional Miccosukee and Seminole villages, as well as ceremonial and burial grounds and other gathering sites, in Big Cypress National Preserve, where the airstrip is located.

Human rights activists have called the facility inhumane and raised issues with potentially thousands of people being housed in temporary tents and trailers during Florida’s hurricane season.

Environmental groups late Friday filed a last-minute lawsuit to halt the facility’s opening.

In response, DeSantis’ office said the detention is a “necessary staging operation for mass deportations located at a preexisting airport that will have no impact on the surrounding environment.”

DeSantis is also reportedly considering a second processing center at Camp Blanding, a National Guard training base.
