Clashing Habitats


As Vermont's moose population increases, so does the number of plants they eat, and the amount of space they need. The number of black bears and deer are also up, and wolves may be poised to return to Vermont any day. How will the arrival of a new predator affect other animals? We explore these issues with Vermont naturalist Sue Morse.

Also, we go looking for moose in the Northeast Kingdom with an Island Pond hunting guide, and he talks about how hunting and conservation can co-exist. Then, we continue our series of postcards from Vermont towns, with a trip to Groton's annual chicken pie supper.
