Tuesday, May 20th, 7pm EDT on Zoom
There are more kinds of salamanders in the southern Appalachians than anywhere else in the world! These humble little hunters of forests, streams, and ponds can tell us a lot about biodiversity and the hidden lives of Appalachian forests.
Join us as Dr. Benjamin Fitzpatrick, Professor, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Tennessee teaches us more about these fascinating creatures. This program will review salamander basics, the reasons our region is a special place for them, and some of the challenges they face.
The class is free, but you must register to receive the Zoom link and recording. . Closed captions are available.
Please contact Michelle at mcampani@utk.edu for any questions or registration issues.
