In today’s show Betty and Trev talk about the accidental wildlife reserve that has emerged inside the Korean Demilitarized Zone. We talk about the history leading up to Korea’s national division and the story of a bird that connected a separated family by flying over the border. We finish with the story of some unexpected WWII heroes from the Tiwi Islands. Tune in next week for Part 2. Book referenced: Making Peace with Nature: Ecological Encounters Along the Korean DMZ.
