Hispaniola biologists explore Vermont bird conservation programs

Thursday July 24, 2008
Jane Lindholm

A group of conservation biologists from the island of Hispaniola spent the last three weeks in Vermont exploring U.S. bird conservation programs and learning skills to take back to their countries. VPR's Jane Lindholm talked with them, and with their host, Vermont Center for Ecostudies Director Chris Rimmer, about some of the challenges they face in their home countries.
