SUMMARY:Exploring Hidden Worlds- Online Course
DESCRIPTION:North Cascade Institute presents Exploring Hidden Worlds: Frogs and Salamanders of the Puget Trough- Online \nWhen: April 30 and May 7  from 6:00pm-7:15pm \nWhere: Online\, anywhere you wish \nInstructor: Stephen Nyman \nClass Tuition: $18 \n  \nThe lowlands of the Puget Trough are home to more than two-thirds of all Washingtonians and an incredible diversity of amphibians\, including 11 native species of frogs and salamanders\, as well as a growing number of introduced species. \nAmong our native amphibians are cherished harbingers of spring\, culturally significant yet often inconspicuous species\, and members of ancient lineages that remain vital to the modern world. \nJoin Whatcom County Amphibian Monitoring Program biologist Stephen Nyman for a day of discovery as we explore the hidden world of amphibians in the region’s wetlands\, ponds\, streams\, and forests.In the first session of this two-part virtual class\, you’ll gain the knowledge and tools to identify all local amphibian species by their life stages\, understand their habitats and lifestyles\, and learn about the adaptations that support their success—and their vulnerabilities. The second session will dive deeper into fascinating topics\, such as larval development\, the remarkable process of metamorphosis\, and the behaviors associated with feeding\, predator avoidance\, courtship\, and competition. Through photos and videos\, we’ll uncover the often-overlooked lives of these remarkable creatures. \n  \nNote: This is a 2-part online course. The first class is April 30 and the second class is May 7. Both are from 6 – 7:30 pm. When you register using this page you will be enrolled in both sessions. If you can’t make one or both in person we will send you a link to view on your own time! \nFor more information and to register click here
