John Sammler, education program manager of the U of M’s Raptor Center, will present “Using Raptors As a Lens to Ecosystem Health”.
The Raptor Center at the University of Minnesota has been studying and rehabilitating injured raptors since 1974. Each raptor at the center tells a story about the bird itself and the environmental factors that bird populations are experiencing. John will talk about the history of the Raptor Center and its mission, and about how raptors give us data on the health of our larger ecosystems.
