(FT Robin Irazarry)
What’s the biggest wild animal in your city? Is it a fish the size of a car? Guest host Robin Irazarry, Philadelphia Watershed Coordinator for the Tookany/Tacony Frankford Watershed Partnership (TTF) and the brains behind #HerpingTheHood, joins us as we listen to Joe Perillo of the Philadelphia Water Department talk about a notable Philly shortnose sturgeon and to Dewayne Fox, a sturgeon researcher at Delaware State University, discuss our huge aquatic neighbors.
Atlantic Sturgeon collected (and released) by Dewayne Fox and crew under NOAA-NMFS Endangered Species Research Permit #16507.
