Urban Ecology Part 2 with Miguel Ordeñana (Bats, Inclusive Urban Nature and Community Science)
Listen now
Description
Do bats live close to my house? Why are they important? Do they have rabies? How can people help take care of urban wildlife? How can we involve more people in conservation and community science, particularly people from historically excluded groups? Come with me and Miguel Ordeñana to Griffith Park in Los Angeles, where we discuss all of this and so much more.
