Come join the Green Mountain Club on Friday night for a talk with Ben Kilham, a famouse black bear biologist from Lyme, NH. Ben will go in-depth into black bear behavior and how they form relationships. Ben's love of and devotion to black bears has enabled him to study their habits and interact with them for more than twenty years. He and his wife Debra have accepted orphaned bear cubs into their home and enabled them to return to the wild. Ben has been the focus of news articles and documentaries including National Geographic’s "A Man Among Bears" and Animal Planet’s "Papa Bear." He is also co-author of the book "Among the Bears: Raising Orphaned Cubs in the Wild."

Cost: $5 for GMC members, $8 for non-members, kids 12 & under free. All proceeds benefit GMC education programs.
