SUMMARY:Beaver in the County--Then and Now with Ian Wilson
DESCRIPTION:Fish biologist Ian Wilson has a long interest in stream and habitat restoration\, and a growing interest in the role of the humble beaver in shaping and managing ecosystems. The Wallowa Valley\, like most of North America before the plundering of beaver for European hats\, was a series of beaver ponds\, marshes\, and playas. It is estimated that there were over 300 million North American beaver before the trapping frenzy. \n\n \n\nWhat did the Wallowa Valley look like150 years ago? What happened to our ponds and marshes? And what will the reintroduction of beaver to our environment do?\n\n\n\nIan Wilson is currently a project coordinator for the Grande Ronde Model Watershed\, He works on public and private lands with agency partners to plan\, implement and monitor stream restoration projects in the Grande Ronde basin. Prior to joining the Grande Ronde Model Watershed\, Ian worked for the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation\, the Nez Perce Tribe and the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife\, implementing stream restoration projects and studying Chinook and steelhead populations in northeast Oregon.He has a Bachelors of Science in Fisheries and Wildlife from Oregon State University with a specialization in fisheries.\n\n \n\nTuesday talks are open and free to the public. For more information\, call Rich Wandschneider at 541-263-0930.
