Coastal River Otter at Edgartown Great Pond

A look at biodiversity on the Cape and Islands.

Friends of Bass River is a group of citizens dedicated to the guardianship of the delicate ecosystem of ponds, coves and sub-basins of the Bass River Estuarine System. Mindy talks with the group's executive director, Brian Weiner.

Next we hear from BioDiversity Works on Martha's Vineyard about their work to promote conservation of biodiversity through wildlife research and monitoring, and opportunities for people to engage in hands-on nature study. Liz Baldwin and Luanne Johnson join us in the studio. 

 

Mindy Todd is the host and producer of The Point on WCAI which examines critical issues for Cape Cod and the Islands. She brings more than 40 years of experience in radio and television to WCAI.
