Today, were going to have a look into the worm world, secifically invasive jumping worms, with Dr. Lee Frelich. He's a professor of forest and landscape ecology at the University of Minnesota and is a leading researcher and is widely cited in disturbence ecology and succession in forest ecosystems.
