Frontiers in Science Lecture Series
April 22 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
The Sister Science Club initiated its Frontiers in Science lecture series in 2011 for the community at large, believing that the love of scientific knowledge would attract a devoted audience. Since then, scientists and other experts have lectured on a wide variety of topics.
April’s presentation is on Beaver-Human Coexistence: Past, Present, and Future. Beavers are keystone species whose ecological engineering benefits landscapes and biodiversity, especially here in the East Cascades! This talk will explore the history of beaver-human interactions, recent research on the importance of beaver-modified habitats, and innovative coexistence solutions. With new policies and funding mechanisms in place, we are at a turning point for beaver conservation in Oregon.
Join us at the Belfry in Sisters (302 E Main Ave, Sisters, OR 97759) on Tuesday, April 22, at 6:00 PM for a social hour and 7 pm for the presentation.
No RSVP required! However, they do ask for a $5 donation at the door (no one is turned away for lack of funds).
