SUMMARY:August Lunch and Learn
DESCRIPTION:Wisconsin and the Watery World of Beavers \nNicholas Miller\, PhD \nBeavers are ecosystem engineers who are producers of biodiversity\, mitigators of floods\, and preventers of fires\, and are often entangled in conservation tactics. Using personal anecdotes\, interviews\, and folklore\, this presentation will briefly highlight the cultural and natural history of the beaver\, discuss some of the mythology of the critter in the Great Lakes area\, and explain the ecological impact and importance of the animal in Wisconsin. \nNicholas Miller did his doctoral research in Milwaukee on the return of beaver and sturgeon and has a PhD in “Multispecies History and Anthropology” from the UW – Milwaukee. He is currently a Teaching Professor of History and Anthropology at Ball State University. His research combines public history\, environmental anthropology\, and folkloristics.
