SUMMARY:Mussels of Minnesota - ONLINE VIA ZOOM
DESCRIPTION:Due to the current situation of not being able to hold our monthly meetings in-person at Dakota Lodge\, we are going to try something different in an attempt to still engage you the member – a presentation via Zoom. Although this is not an ideal situation we still feel as though we need to stay connected somehow. \nProgram: “Mussels of Minnesota” \nby Bernard Sietman\, Malacologist\, Minnesota DNR \nMussels\, a key player in nutrient cycling which benefits aquatic and emergent plants\, are under threat due to various factors including water pollution. Bernard Sietman\, a malacologist with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources\, will present on the ecological role\, threats\, recovery\, and future of this group of specialized organisms.

SUMMARY:Moose and Brainworm - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:CANCELLED DUE TO CORONAVIRUS. \nPresented by Dr. Tiffany Wolf\, DVM\, PhD\, University of Minnesota. \nThe moose\, an iconic creature of the north woods and an important member of this ecosystem\, is in serious decline. This trend is the result of several factors including a parasite\, Parelaphostrongylus tenuis\, which has been introduced via the expansion of another host species\, the white-tailed deer. \nDr. Wolf\, an assistant professor at the University of Minnesota-College of Veterinary Medicine\, is on the front lines. She is working in collaboration with the Grand Portage Band as she explores the impacts of wildlife management practices\, pinpointing the parasites temporary hosts\, and looking at differences in the DNA of the parasite in hopes of preventing transmission. She will be sharing with us the details regarding her research.
