Event Summary:
Meet to discuss the book Where the Wild things Were by William Stolzenberg

Event Description:
Discuss the book and how loss of predators negatively impacts the ecology. William Stolzenburg has studied predator control techniques and worked as a wildlife technician, monitoring endangered species. He has written hundreds of magazine features and columns on the ecology of rarity and extinction for Science News and Nature Conservancy, among others.

William Stolzenberg has spent most of his career covering the science of wildlife conservation, gravitating towards a particularly maligned tribe of animal called predators. The fang-and-claw fascination inevitably led me to a cadre of rabble-rousing scientists who were turning the tenets of ecology on its head, uncovering the critical roles of Earth’s topmost predators in enriching the web of life.
