CARIBOU RAINFOREST TALK - FRIENDS OF THE LARDEAU RIVER SPEAKER SERIES

Join me for an evening of photos and stories exploring the world endangered mountain caribou and the last great inland temperate rainforest left on the planet. A small team of adventurers and I have been tracking down these rare creatures and documenting the stunning world they call home. Learn about the many challenges facing these beautiful creatures and globally unique ecosystem and the shifting focus of conservation efforts in face of 21st century challenges.

The entire population of this endangered species of caribou is now less then 1500 animals across their entire range which stretches north into central British Columbia. As their habitat is steadily altered and destroyed by human activity, herds across the entire range continue to decline despite a variety of conservation efforts. Why this is has much to teach us about carrying for our planet’s natural heritage on both local and global scales.
