The FRDC invites you to join us online on January 13th, 7:00-8:30pm, for a presentation by Dr. Eric Taylor, professor of Zoology and Director of the Fish Collection at the Beaty Biodiversity Museum. Dr. Taylor studies the patterns and processes that inform us of the origins and persistence of biodiversity, and how we can apply this knowledge to conservation efforts. In fall 2021, Dr. Taylor released his new book, Rivers Run Through Us: A Natural and Human History of Great Rivers in North America. The book profiles 10 major waterways across North America, inviting readers to consider how the physical nature of rivers has influenced the development of societies and ecosystems. Dr. Taylor will share insights from his book and lead us in taking a closer look at the Fraser River and how its geography has been crucial to its incredible biodiversity! This presentation will conclude with a Q&amp;A session. We hope you will join us! Registration is by donation, and includes a link to the Zoom meeting. The FRDC is pleased to be able to offer this presentation with free registration, but as a non-profit charitable organization we rely on community members like you to stay open. Please consider making a donation to the Discovery Centre online or in-person during your next visit.
