Nature Folk: Wildlife or Wild Myth?

Naturalist Ranger Russ from Meigs Point Nature Center teams up with noted folklorist Professor Stephen Gencarella from UMass/Amherst to share perspective on the creatures and characters that might have been part of our natural world centuries ago....and the stories attached to them! What is a Whapperknocker? What are the truths about the last gray wolf in Connecticut...how about that frog war in Windham...we dissect the story and share from both the nature side and the folklore side what might be true...and where the fantastical may take over...and why!
