Matt Flores is a Habitat Biologist with the Nevada Division of Wildlife and an expert on water collection systems. On October 5th, he'll give a presentation titled, Guzzlers In Nevada: How Water Developments Sustain Wildlife In The Desert.  

Human developments and communities fragment wildlife habitat areas cutting off species from life giving water in desert climates like ours here in Southern Nevada. Matt will explain how the creation of guzzlers, water retaining structures built in areas where there is not enough water to support wildlife without supplemental water sources, are critical to the survival of wildlife in Nevada such as mule deer, bighorn sheep, elk and antelope. Come learn about our local wildlife and how these guzzlers keep wildlife populations thriving!

We'll see you there!
