On April 11 at 7PM, Newton Conservators will present a one-hour webinar, Coexisting with Coyotes in Suburban Communities, by Dave Wattles, Biologist with MassWildlife. Register here to receive an email confirmation with the link for the webinar.
Eastern coyotes are found in nearly every town and city in Massachusetts, and they can thrive close to humans in a variety of habitats. Join this webinar to learn about eastern coyote biology, how coyotes use suburban areas, and how communities like Newton can take effective steps to coexist with coyotes. This talk will be presented by Mass Wildlife’s Black Bear and Furbearer Biologist Dave Wattles, PhD.
Dave has been studying and working with large mammals in Massachusetts since 2006, when he began collaring and studying moose for his graduate work at UMass Amherst. He has fifteen years of experience conducting black bear research and has been the Black Bear and Furbearer Biologist with the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (Mass Wildlife) since 2016.
