​

Mike Harrington of Alaska Department of Fish and Game  presented "Wolverines: Researching an Alaskan Wilderness Icon."  The multi-media presentation will describe the research on wolverine movements that will provide valuable data for estimating their populations, and to help game managers ensure healthy populations and sustainable harvests. The presentation will explain all aspects of wolverine biology and ecology, including reproduction, activity, habitat preferences, home range sizes, and interactions among their species. 
Thanks to Alyeska Pipeline Service Company for support of our lecture series, and Prince William Sound College and Copper Country Alliance for partnering to make this special event possible.
