What The Hack: Nature in NYC

from All Of It with Alison Stewart · host WNYC

New York may be known as a concrete jungle, but it's also a fish spawning ground, a migratory bird rest stop, and home to all kinds of life, including flora, fauna and whatever category “dog vomit slime mold” fits into. In their new book Wild NYC: Experience the Amazing Nature in and Around New York City, naturalist and science writer Ryan Mandelbaum profiles some of the species with whom we share our urban environment. The book also describes the city's natural history, and includes suggestions for day trips and excursions that can bring you closer to nature here in the five boroughs.
