The Whitehall Ledger - Serving Southern Jefferson County in the Great State of Montana

Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park will host a free talk entitled “Alpine Wildlife and Shifting Climates” on Friday, June 18, at 8 p.m. in the park’s campground amphitheater.

Come explore the varied ways in which wildlife can respond to changes in regional weather and climatic conditions. You will learn about how alpine animals react to these shifts by following American pikas and marmots, two of Montana’s small yet charismatic mammals. This talk will help you step into the animals’ shoes and imagine how they experience the environment around them.

This is the fourth presentation...
