Nature Talk: What a Fish Knows

Jonathan Balcombe

Mississippi Valley Field Naturalist January Nature Talk will feature Jonathan Balcombe describing fish perceptions, cognition, emotion, social behavior, and cooperation, all within the context of our evolving relationship to fishes and their vital aquatic habitats.  Jonathan has a PhD in ethology, the study of animal behaviour, and has spent most of his career working in animal protection.

Meetings are held at the Almonte United Church at 106 Elgin Street in Almonte.  Meetings begin at 7 pm, with doors open and refreshments available starting at 6:30 pm.
