Episode: Call of the Loon

The Common Loon stars in this beautiful yet disturbing documentary. Even though the lakes in the Adirondacks look pristine, this is not the reality.

The detrimental effects of mercury on loons provide a broader understanding of the impact of mercury pollution on wildlife and ecosystems in the Adirondacks and northeastern America
