Native & Invasive Species of the Wetlands
Premieres Friday, Aug. 22, at 8:30 PM

The much-anticipated second episode of BY NATURE’S DESIGN: EXPLORING OUR NATIVE WILDLIFE arrives with a closer look at biodiversity in the wetland ecosystem. Created by Sophia Gillespie, associate producer of content, and executive produced by Ryan Donchess, chief content officer, the series continues its exploration of regional wetlands by raising awareness of the dangers posed by invasive species. 

“Knowing what species are present in the environment can help protect our wetlands, especially when it comes to invasive species,” said Gillespie. “I hope people watching will be able to recognize some of the invasive and native species on their next visit to a wetland and be able to use their new resources to take action.”

All PBS Western Reserve productions, including BY NATURE’S DESIGN, are made possible by the support of viewers like you. “We have a profound sense of gratitude for our community,” said Donchess. “Being able to tell the stories of our region and use media for educational outcomes is why we’re here and it’s what we want to continue doing as an organization for generations to come.”
