MSU BILLINGS NEWS SERVICES 鈥� 顶级国产视频 is excited to present A Night on the Wild Side starting at 6 p.m., June 27 in Liberal Arts Building room #205.

The community is welcome to the free presentation series, featuring experts from all over the state.

They will explore animal communication, rescue and rehabilitation, a history of the Smithsonian at Yellowstone Park, the fishy underworld of streams and lakes, and little-known international work in bird rehabilitation on the west end of Billings. 

MSU Billings Professor Dr. Lisa Kemmerer, who is organizing the event through the Philosophy department, said the evening will be a 鈥渨ildlife extravaganza.鈥�

鈥淭his evening will include a variety of topics that will appeal to many people,鈥� Kemmerer said. 鈥淔or instance, I don鈥檛 think many people realize that Billings is home to world-renowned animal rescue experts or that the state is grappling with a giant tortoise problem. They鈥檙e an invasive species.鈥�

One of those local animal rehab experts is Dr. Sheila McKay, owner of the local non-profit DJH Bird Resources.

The organization specializes in waterfowl and species propagation. McKay will discuss bird rescue and rehabilitation in the Magic City.

鈥淩oad incidents are just one way they come to us,鈥� she said. 鈥淚f a bird gets hit, or separated while crossing the street.鈥�

A Night on the Wild Side is funded by a grant from Humanities Montana.
