Roads are so ubiquitous that they’re practically invisible to us, but wild animals experience them as entirely alien forces of disruption. Join the Harris Center for a special evening with award-winning environmental journalist and author Ben Goldfarb as he discusses his newest book, Crossings: How Road Ecology is Shaping the Future of Our Planet. Discover not only how roads impact wildlife, but also how road ecologists and programs like the Harris Center’s Salamander Crossing Brigades are working to create a better future for all.

5:30 to 6:30 p.m. via Zoom. To get the login details, please register here.
