When faced with environmental changes, organisms can either adapt, move, or perish.

In this workshop with Clark College's David Zonana, PhD, participants will learn about how land use changes, introduced species, and climate change are presenting new challenges to local wildlife populations. We will also dive into the biological processes that allow these populations to respond (adaptation through natural selection, migration, changes in the timing of reproduction, and more). We will also highlight the unique role the refuge plays in supporting wildlife in a rapidly changing region.
