The Wonders of Wetlands – Celebrating American Wetlands Month
Description
From coastal marshes to inland swamps, wetlands are the unsung heroes of nature. This month, Nature Boost is giving them the spotlight they deserve in honor of American Wetlands Month! MDC Wetlands Ecologist Frank Nelson gives us a tour of Eagle Bluffs Conservation Area near Columbia and tells us what wetlands are, why the matter, and why we should totally care. Think natural water filters, flood protection, wildlife hangouts, and even climate superheroes (wetlands store carbon like champs). Tune in to this episode to fall in love with marshes, bogs, swamps, and all the wet and wild places in between. Find a wetland to visit by checking out the MDC website at http://short.mdc.mo.gov/4fv
