In Episode 3 of Conservation Tails, we sit down with Maggie Cooper of Shedd Aquarium and Nick Wesley of Urban Rivers to talk about the floating wetlands they are developing and placing in the Chicago River. This is a longer episode that really digs into how Shedd Aquarium is helping the water and shoreline at home, and how their partnership with Urban Rivers is leading to some amazing results for the urban wildlife in the water and along it's banks.EPISODE LINKS: @shedd_aquarium on socials sheddaquarium.org ROSSIFARI LINKS: patreon.com/rossifari @rossifari on socials @rossifaripod on TikTok rossifari.com References For This Episode: Camarillo, E.
