1:00 p.m.
at the WheatonArts Event Center
Dr. Daniel Herrera is a quantitative wildlife ecologist studying human-wildlife dynamics and predation behavior at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences. Dr. Herrera uses motion-activated wildlife cameras and statistical modelling to explore how urban planning and human actions inadvertently impact animal behavior.
While his research has spanned many species, Dr. Herrera has spent a considerable portion of his career investigating the ecological impacts of free-roaming domestic cats in protected areas, with the aim of finding solutions that safeguard wildlife, public health, and animal welfare.
Dr. Herrera holds bachelor's degrees in Environmental Science and Biology (double major) from Augustana College and a PhD in Environmental Science and Technology from the University of Maryland.
