Upcoming Event: Bears Of The Annamites
Dear Friends of Saola,
On Saturday, October 30 please join the Saola Foundation’s CEO, Dr. Lorraine Scotson, for a fascinating and entertaining live webinar on the lives of bears (and of a bear biologist!) in the Annamite Mountains.
Two species of bear live in the Annamites, Sun Bear and Asiatic Black Bear, and both have been hard hit by the same poaching pressure that threatens Saola. Lorraine has spent nearly a decade on the trails of Asian bears, including as part of her PhD research. In her presentation, “Adventures with bears of the Annamites: tales from a field biologist”, she will share both stories and science about the fascinating yet precarious lives of bears in the Saola’s range.
This event is free, but pre-registration is required, which you can do here: register.
After registration, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to join the presentation on the 30th. Local times for the event are shown below.
See you then!
