"Summer Adaptations for Texas Wildlife"
Presented by Dr. Sam Kieschnick,
Urban Wildlife Biologist, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department
From Sam:
Hello! My name is Sam Kieschnick, and I am an Urban Wildlife Biologist in Dallas/Fort Worth with Texas Parks and Wildlife. What does an urban wildlife biologist do? Well, most of my job involves working with the public. As urbanization occurs, wildlife and people interact more and more.
I try to work with people to find out the ways that these interactions can be beneficial. My job entails three parts: outreach, technical guidance, and research. I get to do quite a few presentations on urban biology of the various organisms that are found in and around cities and towns. These presentations can be for city councils, park planners, general public, school groups, or anyone that wants to hear my jibber jabber! :) I also give technical guidance to land owners, municipalities, and organizations that want to create wildlife habitat. One of my favorite parts of my job is how active I get to be with citizen science and naturalists.
You don't want to miss hearing Sam Kieschnick, a most enthusiastic,
fun, and knowledgeable speaker!
