Welcome back, citizen!

Invasive species are a hot topic these days. With pythons in Florida and Lion Fish at the Atlantic coast, they're making news everywhere.

I'll answer those questions and talk to Kristen Wickert from West Virginia University about how she's learning to control an invasive tree.
