The Minnesota Zoo Our World Speaker Series August 13

Topic: The Ecological Future of North American Bison
Speaker: Dr. Kyran Kunkel
Date: Tuesday, August 13, 2013, 6:30-8:30 p.m.
More than 20 million bison once roamed the Great Plains and beyond, but now they occupy less than one percent of their historical range, and no truly free-ranging herds exist. Urgent measures are needed to conserve and to restore the ecological role of bison. Economic trends in the Great Plains combined with new conservation initiatives have created the potential for significant progress in their restoration. Dr. Kunkel, Director of Conservation Science Collaborative at the University of Montana, will share the innovative work required to restore large herds of wild bison. Registration will open one month prior to the event. To register go to: https://www.nc.mnzoo.state.mn.us/netcommunity/sslpage.aspx?pid=556
