Horseshoe Crab

The horseshoe crabs along the Delaware coast have made a major rebound after declines in the 1990's. In our partnership with Spotlight Delaware Delmarva Public Media's Don Rush talks with reporter Olivia Marble who went out this month to follow the volunteers who count the little creatures. The full interview can be heard on this Friday's Delmarva Today at noon on WSDL and WESM.

Don Rush is the News Director and Senior Producer of News and Public Affairs at Delmarva Public Media. An award-winning journalist, Don reports major local issues of the day, from sea level rise, to urban development, to the changing demographics of Delmarva.
