When most people think of wildlife research, they think of studies done in rainforests, mountains, or deserts, far away from people. But did you know that research discoveries have been made in cities and neighborhoods just like yours? In this month’s “Naturally Speaking” online lecture series from the Virginia Living Museum, Dr. Ela-Sita Carpenter will talk about the history of urban wildlife research, why it’s important, and what we can learn from studying wildlife in cities.
Dr. Carpenter is an urban wildlife biologist with U.S. Fish and Wildlife in Baltimore, MD. Her past research experience includes bird and bat research in Maryland, Nevada, and Virginia.
Join us for our guest speaker at 6:30 pm for a 30-minute talk. Following the lecture, we will allow time for questions and a wrap-up. This is a free streamed, adult-only event. Register to join the webinar at the vlm.org/education/adultsfamilies/adults/
