Passenger Pigeon Part 1
Manage episode 398329167 series 1290491
Bob and Charles tackle one of the hardest subjects that Nature Guys has ever undertaken. In part 1 of Passenger Pigeon they go back in time to experience what this bird was like. Thanks to naturalists in the past we have first hand accounts of what this bird was like. Find out how humans managed to wipe out this bird.
For more information, we recommend these books:
- Wild New World The Epic Story of Animals and People in America by Dan Flores (Bob's pick)
- Man and Nature by George Perkins Marsh (Charles's pick)
