Justin Brown, a biologist with the National Park Service (NPS) who has been leading the Los Angeles Urban Coyote Program for three years, will be at the Eaton Canyon Nature Center Saturday, August 25, to speak about how coyotes are adapting to the constantly changing urban setting.
The lecture, titled “Living with Wildlife in an Urban Setting,” is part of Eaton Canyon Nature Center’s 2018 Twilight Programs.
