Did you know that we now have almost every species that was here at the time of European settlement? From ravens, eagles, and turkeys to moose, bears, beavers, and fishers, many of these species had nearly or completely disappeared from Massachusetts, but they are now making a comeback. Find out how and why as Dr. Tom French, Assistant Director for the Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program at MassWildlife, leads us through the rollercoaster history of wildlife in Massachusetts and discusses our role in shaping that history.

Presentation followed by reception, refreshments, and Annual Meeting at 8:00 PM.
