We will discuss the mechanisms that some of our wildlife species utilize to survive our severe winter climate. There will be in-depth discussions of migration, hibernation, estivation (winter sleep), and simply “toughing it out” (as do coyotes, deer, crows, and some hardy humans).
Roy Horst spent 25 years of his career teaching physiology and ecology at SUNY Potsdam. Having retired, he continues to teach – this time for SOAR. Roy has offered many different SOAR courses over recent years.
