We citizens of Wisconsin love our forests and wildlife. Forestry, outdoor recreation, and hunting are key parts of our state economy. Alarmingly, these resources are at risk. Many forests are not regenerating, beloved wildflowers are disappearing, people shun the outdoors fearing tick-borne diseases, and hunters blame the DNR for falling deer numbers and CWD. 

In this talk, ecologist Don Waller will explore how historical efforts to boost forest and wildlife productivity have led, inadvertently, to interactions that have damaged these resources instead. He urges those attending to bring their own concerns and questions to the table so the group can discuss these issues in an informed and integrated way.

Tickets cost $19.95 and include lunch. Register by April 13.
