The Wildling Museum of Art and Nature in Solvang presents The Wild Wonder of California and Beyond, a special Zoom presentation with conservationist and author Beth Pratt (pictured), on Wednesday, Dec. 2, starting at 4 p.m. The program is part of the museum’s ongoing Zoom lecture series, sponsored by Montecito Bank and Trust.
The webinar will include photos and videos from Pratt’s extensive encounters with mountain lions, bears, and other animals. Pratt will also share tips on how to foster a coexistence ethic with wildlife starting with tasks you can accomplish in your own backyard to help wild animals thrive.
Viewers can also look forward to hearing about Pratt’s new book, I Heart Wildlife: A Guided Activity Journal for Connecting with the Wild World. Pratt will guide attendees through a couple of sample exercises from the interactive journal during the Zoom program.
