Kristy Bly is World Wildlife Fund’s Black-footed Ferret Restoration Manager. She works with partners to remove the black-footed ferret – one of North America’s most endangered mammals – from the Endangered Species List. In this session Kristy will share the story of why they almost went extinct, their amazing comeback, threats they face today, and what she and her partners are doing to restore this masked bandit of the prairie. Students will also learn about what they can do to help protect black-footed ferrets and their habitat.
This is part of our ongoing series with HHMI Tangled Bank Studio and their Wild Hope series!
