SFKC Home Program Summary There’s no doubt about it, cities are hubs of activity. They are bustling with life.

These urban landscapes are rapidly becoming the most common ecosystems on Earth. As cities spread, how does nature respond? And how do humans fit into the picture from an ecologist's point of view? Is there more to the urban ecosystem than pigeons, rats, and cockroaches? Guests Fred Koontz, director of
