The Allegheny Front show

Summary: On this week's The Allegheny Front, a long-time park foreman unexpectedly comes face-to-face with a black bear cub.  The encounter informs the way he manages Pittsburgh's largest park.  And a pest known as Hemlock Woolly Adelgid has destroyed trees all along the east coast.  It's been found for the first time in a stand of iconic old-growth hemlocks in Cook Forest.  Plus, an industrialist's daughter turns a sooty family legacy green.  All this, and more. http://media.alleghenyfront.org.s3.amazonaws.com/AF072013Show.mp3
