Dead Birds Saving Live Birds: Museum Collections and Bird Conservation
Did you know that the vast majority of specimens in most natural history museum collections are not on display? They are research specimens, and the museums act as libraries of animal parts. Tamar Danufsky, curator of Humboldt State University’s Wildlife Museum, will talk about these little-known repositories, some dating back hundreds of years. She'll explain how these historic and recent bird specimens are for understanding and preserving bird populations. Bring a mug to enjoy shade-grown coffee, and come fragrance-free.
