In the film 'Crash: A Tale of Two Species,' filmmaker Alison Argo highlights the conflict between harvesting horseshoe crab eggs for fishing bait and for medical purposes and the reliance of the Red Knot on those same eggs to provide the fuel it needs for its long migratory flight.

Brian Harrington, Senior Scientist at the Manomet Center for Conservation Sciences will host a question and answer session after the film. Harrington has been studying the habits, distribution and migration routes of the Red Knot since 1972.

No reservation needed.
