What:
Hear renowned conservationist, author, and chief scientist for World Wildlife Fund, Dr. Eric Dinerstein, speak about the recovery of large mammals and the bold, uncompromising leadership that is tugging these extraordinary animals back from the brink of extinction. In an age when wildlife scientists also become politicians, educators, and activists in order to safeguard the creatures they study, Dinerstein’s inspiring story offers a ray of hope for saving large mammals across the globe. His diverse research has ranged from old-growth forests in the Pacific Northwest, to snow leopards in India, to the greater one-horned rhinoceros.
