The clam, the butterfly and the fox - a comeback story

Clam butterfly fox image.jpg

Once upon a time there was a clam, a butterfly and a fox. They all called the central California Coast their home. They lived happily among trees, on mostly uninhabited islands and hidden under the sand on the beach.

But then they all almost disappeared. Why? Some because of human activity – for others, who knows.

But this tale does have a happy ending because all these creatures are coming back… some, really quickly.

On this episode of The One Oh One – the Pismo Beach Clam, the Monarch Butterfly and the Channel Island Fox... a comeback story.
