SUMMARY:A Talk On The Wild Side: Saving Giraffes
DESCRIPTION:Attend a conservation talk at the Kansas City Zoo & Aquarium! Hear from Susan Myers\, Kayla Walisch\, and Aggrey Chemwa from Save Giraffes Now as they discuss their work to help giraffes live freely and safely in the woodlands and savannas of their native habitat. \nLearn how the Zoo is partnering with Save Giraffes Now on unique co-existence projects in Kenya\, including a research study of the Lukenya Railroad underpass and the funding of two crucial water pans on the Olosira Community Conservancy. The Athi-Kapiti Region of Kenya serves as a wildlife corridor connecting the Nairobi National Park to National Parks\, and giraffes are greatly impacted as habitat loss and human population growth are the biggest factors in their conservation struggle. This presentation will highlight how this organization is developing practical solutions to human-wildlife conflict to support giraffe populations! \nGeneral admission tickets are $15\, Friends of the Zoo (FOTZ) member tickets are $10\, and student tickets are $5.\nVIP tickets are $40 for adults and $20 for children. Join us from 5 to 6 pm for a reception\, meet & greet with the speakers\, appetizers\, and complimentary beverages.
