Last week, we at ECHO were very excited to welcome Chris Alexopoulos, a fishery and wildlife specialist from
the Green Mountain National Forest Service.
He gave two
presentations on Wednesday (with a special appearance by Smokey
Bear) about different animals and their contributions to the
forest. He taught everyone about different types of salmon, foxes, ducks,
bluebirds, and more while displaying taxidermy animals for the audience to enjoy.
With this information
he emphasized the importance of keeping the National Forests clean. As a
wildlife specialist he does what he can to help the environmental aspects of
the forest, which in turn helps the wildlife and the natural health of each individual species.
Chris will be
back this Wednesday another set of presentations, this time focusing on forestry/timber and habitat management. This is an ongoing series throughout the summer so stop by and learn all about it.
Last week was awesome and we encourage you to stop by for more fun!
