Unsalted Great Lakes

Shownotes Transcript

Each spring, Chantry Island is home to thousands of (noisy) birds. Why do human visitors have to carry sticks above their heads? We'll visit the Lake Huron bird sanctuary to learn more.

This segment includes profanity (referring to bird poop). Skip 2:30 - 3:30 to avoid it.

Then, retired University of Minnesota professor Francie Cuthbert shares:

- Why cormorant poop is so problematic

- What population management looks like

- The future of cormorants in the Great Lakes region

Our theme is by Adam Wendler.
