Up in Gray, Maine, we visit a sanctuary for injured and orphaned wildlife, including the majestic moose. On the New Hampshire seacoast, Amy Traverso hunts for invasive green crabs and then cooks her catch into a mouthwatering seafood stew with Chef Brendan Vesey of Botanica Restaurant in Portsmouth.
