Central Vermont OLLI Presents John Alberth of Protecting Our Wildlife

The winter-spring session of the Central Vermont Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) continues on Wednesday, March 1 at 1:30 pm at the Montpelier Senior Activity Center. Animal rehabilitator John Alberth will discuss his work to protect native wildlife in Vermont. Alberth will reconstruct the two-year process leading to the release of a pair of orphaned beavers into the wild in May 2022. Using videos and still photos, he will explain why beavers are considered a "keystone" species for wildlife ecosystems.

The series will continue through April 12. All presentations start at 1:30. See descriptions of the complete program at the Central Vermont OLLI website at https://learn.uvm.edu/olli/centralvt.

You may register for all seven remaining weekly presentations―four talks plus three films―for $40 ($70 for two) or for individual sessions at $8 apiece. Registration should be done online ahead of time or by mail to UVM OLLI. Or if you decide to drop in at the last moment, you may send a check or pay online after the fact. All the details are at https://learn.uvm.edu/olli/centralvt.
