Training Sharks to eat Lions

This week it's back to the briny deep as Rachel talks about a program to train sharks to eat lion fish. It's the latest in a strange list of ways people have been trying to control this invasive fish species.

Kirk brings us the strange tale of the 2000 foot tall WEAU TV tower in Wisconsin that was responsible for thousands of bird deaths every year until it fell. The truly strange part is that the antenna wasn't special. "Tower kills" account for somewhere between 4 and 50 million bird deaths in the US every year. It's a sobering story about our responsibility to help migrating birds.
