BEDFORD – Is it possible that an animal specially adapted to old-growth forests is still present? This presentation will make the case that such an animal still exists in Indiana, and the story will include Native Americans, fire, passenger pigeons, bison, and more.
Allen Pursell, Forest Programs Director for the Sam Shine Foundation, will present this fascinating topic on Tuesday, January 23, from 6:00 until 7:00 p.m., as part of the Bedford Outdoors Series. The presentation will be at the Forest Service Office, 811 Constitution Avenue, in Bedford. RSVP by January 19 is required. Contact Autumn Ray, Bedford Parks Department, at 812-275-5692.
For those who cannot attend in person, the event will be live-streamed on the Hoosier National Forest Facebook page facebook.com/HoosierNF/.
The Bedford Outdoors Series is hosted in collaboration with the Bedford Parks Department, Purdue University Extension, USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, Lawrence County Soil & Water Conservation District, Indiana Department of Natural Resources – Division of Forestry, and USDA Forest Service – Hoosier National Forest.
