A FREE, Quarterly WILDlife Lecture Series

July 24th:

Lampreys with Dr. Stewart Reid, Western Fishes

Get to know the oldest and most misunderstood fishes in North America – lampreys. Dr. Stewart Reid will explore the biology, diversity, and conservation of these fascinating ancient fishes. We’ll learn how lampreys start out as eyelash-sized larva (ammocoetes), serve as earthworms in our streams to then journey out to sea where they ride fishes and whales along the coast, until they sniff out a good river to spawn and die in. Learn how they are doing, what their challenges are, and what can we do to help them survive.

 

Bring the kids to this family friendly presentation!
