Conservation Corner

Everyone knows about rabies, but not everyone is aware of its symptoms, how it can be transmitted, or which animals are more likely to carry the rabies virus. Join us as we discuss these important points and the data that indicate a definite rise in cases in our area.

Hot off the press! Join us as we discuss a few eco-news topics that the mainstream media might have mentioned but failed to properly address.

They're hard to see, mistaken for mosquitoes, and can carry a virus that's fatal to deer. Join us as we learn about the biting midge and why they're such a bother this summer.

Join us as we meet our new E&S technician at the Susquehanna County Conservation District.

From their long beak and their chubby little body to their crazy dance moves, this bird has set the internet on fire. Join Devyn and guest host Jill as they discover the world of the Timberdoodle.

So you have a stream on your property... Do you know how clean the water is? Join us as we discover a way to test the water without spending a dime.

Some years, forests seem buried with nuts or fruit. In other years, a nut can't be found anywhere. What's the story behind this phenomenon? Join us as we talk about the environmental and biological reasons why trees might decide to pass on their genetics some years but pass on the effort other years.

Everyone has encountered them, but are they really that bad? Join us as we explore the natural history, range, habitat, diet, and, of course... fun facts about the striped skunk!

Home projects and small businesses can sometimes turn out bigger than originally planned. This week, we're walking you through some ways that the Conservation District might be involved with those projects and businesses (big and small).

Courtney Braunns is back in the house! After working at the District for several years, Courtney followed her passion for hunting and environmental education, taking a job at the Pennsylvania Game Commission. There, she connects with new or lapsed recreationists, providing them with a bridge back to hunting and trapping. Join us as she discusses her role and some upcoming opportunities in northeast PA.
