Reintroduction of Species
California condors have been released over the Grand Canyon; gray wolves have been brought to Yellowstone; and moose have wandered back in to New York State. It sounds like good news, but how are they doing? Will the same forces that drove these animals out in the first place prevent them from thriving? In this hour: a look at the environmental program of reintroducing wild animal species to their natural habitat.
