Central Colorado Humanists Sunday Science program for Sept. 6
Central Colorado Humanists Sunday Science Program for Sept. 6:
“The Truth About Wolves” is the title of the Central Colorado Humanists Sunday Science Program for September 6. Rebecca Burkhalter of Colorado Wild will present the science behind wolves and collaborative solutions that work for everyone.
According to Burkhalter, wolves are deeply misunderstood carnivores who desperately need our help. Wolves are absolutely essential to healthy ecosystems, yet they continue to be persecuted. Among the questions she will address are: Is coexisting with wolves possible? What is happening with Colorado’s wolves? What good are wolves anyway?
Burkhalter earned her ecology degree from the University of North Texas and has been working with wild canids in captivity for about six years. She represents ColoradoWild as the speaker. Colorado Wild is a small group of scientists and advocates who work to educate Colorado about our wildlife and wildlands.
Sunday Science takes place at A Church in Salida, at the corner of 4th and D Streets. Doors open at 9:30 a.m. and the talk will start at 10 a.m. The public is welcome. Admission is free so join us. The Sunday Science Hospitality Committee welcomes any contributions to the “treat table,” including fruit and baked goods.
