As the landscape has changed in Connecticut so have the wildlife populations that depend on the land for habitat. This presentation describes the history of Connecticut’s landscapes and the impact of those changes on wildlife populations.

Master Wildlife Conservationist, Ginny Apple, from the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, will include a brief natural history of Connecticut, address the current state of wildlife, including a discussion of major species, factors affecting their habitats, some challenges we face in managing them, and provide suggestions for what people can do to make a difference. Several animal pelts and skulls will be on display.

Questions and comments are welcome throughout and after the discussion. Please register.
