Gray Fox Research in Southern Illinois-Giant City State Park
Description
Come learn about the illusive gray fox, a native mid-sized carnivore that is declining across the Midwest! This talk will touch on: how to identify a gray fox, compared to more common red foxes; what makes gray foxes so special; how the population is struggling in the Midwest; ongoing research from Southern Illinois University to help combat the population decline; and what YOU can do to help! Presented by Nadine Pershyn, a Ph.D. student at SIU studying these fascinating creatures.
