Back to All Events
Joe Cavataio, a Chicago naturalist, environmentalist, and herpetologist, will speak on the general biology of the eastern massasauga, as well as its tumultuous relationship with humans in a rapidly developing urban area. What lessons have we learned (or not learned) from eradication of massasauga?
Joe is an independent researcher, fascinated by the natural world but in particular how amphibians and reptiles persist in a human-dominated landscape. He is from Chicago but now lives with his family in West Chicago (DuPage Co).
Meeting starts at 7 pm at Cook Library in Libertyville, 413 N. Milwaukee Avenue. If you are not able to attend in person use this Zoom Link.
