S1-18 Saving Steelhead

Fisheries biologist David Hines is standing at the bank of Walker creek, near the town of Tomales. He’s here as part of an effort to help protect Steelhead trout. Steelhead used to be abundant along the Central California coast, but now their very existence here is threatened...

Tune into KRCB.org (104.9 FM Sonoma County) to listen for the current segment. Ear to the Wild is a short interstitial segment aired somewhat randomly throughout the day between other programs. They use shorts and postcards to fill airtime during breaks from Morning Edition and All Things Considered. Also during their music programing, as needed. Greta Mart tends to air them during her show around 4:47 or 5:47.

We are posting more soon, so please check back!
