Feral Cities - Tristan Donovan
This webinar has already occurred. See below to watch the recording.
In Feral Cities, Tristan Donovan researches beyond the urban surface to uncover the diversity of wildlife that we share our streets and homes with and profiles the brave and fascinating people who try to manage them. Donovan plans to encourage our audience to think of our cities as a part of nature. Feral Cities takes readers on a journey through streets and neighborhoods far more alive than we often realize, shows how animals are adjusting to urban living and asks what messages the wildlife in our metropolises have for us.
