Review of March of the Salamanders


Head to the streets for salamanders and frogs. This is an interesting piece about the mating mayhem that ensues each spring in Amherst; as was pointed out in the piece,though, the mayhem goes on all over the country. It's wonderful that Amherst built migration tunnels for these amphibians in love. Everywhere one looks, one can see the effects of manmade structures' encroachment on the age old rituals of wildlife. Lots of information packed into a short span of time. Even though spring is rapidly edging into summer, this piece would still be timely.
