One official screenshot shows police vehicles and a helicopter chasing a vehicle carrying alligators through the wetlands. The people being pursued may be involved in alligator poaching. The scene offers a glimpse of the criminal activity and police presence players may encounter in the area.

Possible Real-World Inspiration
The Florida Everglades
The Florida Everglades are a possible inspiration for Grassrivers. This vast South Florida wetland is known for its waterways, mangroves, and American alligators, all features shared with the scenery Rockstar has shown.
The Everglades are also known as the “River of Grass,” a name associated with the slow flow of water through its grassy marshes. Grassrivers’ name may be a reference to that nickname.
