Join us Tuesday, June 21 at 5:30 pm for a virtual presentation given by respected naturalist and wildlife tracker Susan C. Morse: "Caribou Across the Arctic: Stories from the Land." This by-donation program benefiting Jericho Town Library will be a unique experience for followers of Sue's well-regarded Powerpoint presentations. Sue will present in a live Zoom meeting that will also be recorded and available for later viewing. The link to attend will be available on Jericho Town Library's event calendar and Northeast Wilderness Trust's website. Attendees are encouraged to make a contribution to Jericho Town Library: PO Box 1055, Jericho, VT, 05465. Or find us on Venmo! @jtl-donate, confirmation code 0012.

From the Atlantic Ocean to Alaska's coastal plain–including Arctic islands, mountains, boreal forests, and open tundra–Sue has tracked, studied, and photographed caribou and their remarkable diversity of habitats for fifteen years. Sue's stories are illustrated with her own stunning photos that she has taken throughout some of the most remote habitats in North America, where she has patiently endeavored to get close to caribou and their wild neighbors, including polar bears, musk oxen, Arctic foxes, ptarmigan, and wolves.

Her stories share a mix of humor, adventure, and personal reflections, engaging us all to contemplate the full significance of caribou and the vast wilderness landscapes these animals embody. Sue's work can speak for itself, but in this program, you'll have the opportunity to hear first-hand the intimate knowledge and wisdom that only comes from decades of field research.

This fundraiser benefiting Jericho Town Library is co-sponsored by the Jericho-Underhill Land Trust, Jericho Conservation Commission, Richmond Land Trust, Richmond Free Library, and Huntington Public Library. This presentation is hosted by the Northeast Wilderness Trust and supported by grant funding awarded to Keeping Track.
