Living with Wildlife Program to be held in Broomfield October 22nd

Have you ever wondered why coyotes live so close to people?  How prairie dogs play a part in the ecosystem?  Or what is the best way to get rid of the smell of skunk spray?   If so, join us for a presentation on urban wildlife, conflict avoidance and urban wildlife biology and learn more about Colorado’s wildlife neighbors.

If you visit or live near open space, this is a great opportunity to hear a presentation by Broomfield’s District Wildlife Manager, Claire Solohub.  The event is sponsored by the Broomfield Open Space Foundation, Division of Wildlife, and City and County of Broomfield.  The Broomfield Nature Program will also have volunteers on hand to provide information on educational programs.

Specific species discussion will focus on coyotes, foxes, raccoons, skunks and prairie dogs and will address issues such as:

-Coexisting with wildlife
-Keeping pets safe
-Keeping wildlife wild
-Techniques to minimize nuisance and damage situations
-Enhancing backyard habitat to encourage/discourage wildlife

Refreshments and Q & A to follow the presentation.
