Karsten Heuer
Being Caribou
Wednesday, October 19 @ 7:30 pm
UW Kane Hall 220
Karsten Heuer is a wildlife biologist, park warden, and author. In April 2003, he and his wife, filmmaker Leanne Allison, embarked on a five-month research expedition to migrate more than 1,500 miles with a herd of 120,000 Porcupine Caribou. In a call for caribou protection and habitat preservation, Karsten makes a multimedia public presentation that brings the plight of the caribou and their threatened habitat to life in vivid images and stories.
This is a free presentation, sponsored by the University of Washington's Program on the Environment, The Mountaineers, and the University Bookstore.
A description of Karsten Heuer's book can be found on the Mountaineers Books website.
