About This Event
Mark will talk about his research on cougars, which has contributed significantly to radical changes in our understanding of cougars, especially their surprisingly social lives and the far-reaching influences they have on the ecosystems they inhabit. Mark will also talk about the history of cougars in North America – their persecuted past, their subsequent and partial recovery, and their future prospects for coexisting with humans.
Dr. Elbroch is Director of the Puma Program for Panthera, a global science organization focused on conserving wild cats and the habitat upon which they depend. Mark’s research on cougars was the central storyline of the BBC film, Big Cats in High Places, and NatGeo Wild’s Cougars Undercover.
