Riparian Ecology Presentation
February 28, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Western Wildlife Corridor will hold its winter membership meeting via Zoom on Tuesday, February 28 at 7:00 pm.
We’ll kick off the meeting by sharing the latest news on what is happening in the corridor, including highlights of major capital projects recently completed or under way. Tim Sisson, our Land Stewardship Chairperson, will cover exciting developments in land acquisition and protection. We are on track to protect an additional 100 acres in four separate areas of the corridor. This includes a large property connected to a tributary of the Ohio River. Together these add up to the most acres protected in any comparable period in our history! You won’t want to miss this news concerning the future of conservation in the corridor.
After the WWC news update, Dr. Kendra Cipollini will be our featured speaker. She will present a talk on the “Importance of Wetland Habitats in Conservation Planning”. Dr. Cipollini will help us to further understand the importance of conserving habitat along or near the Ohio River. This presentation will also educate us on the importance of functioning wetland and riparian habitat. You will gain an understanding of why WWC’s goal is to keep these ecosystems functioning, including the important effects of removing invasive species. Dr. Cipollini has been instrumental in the purchase of one of the newest WWC properties.
