June 8, 7:00, SSI Library: Sea Slugs to Sea Stars: Challenges and Resilience in Salish Sea Marine Life presented by David Denning.

Through colourful images and fascinating natural history, this presentation will explore the tide-pools and shallows of the Salish Sea to discover some fascinating invertebrate animals.

It’s an extraordinary biodiversity but is it vulnerable in the face of climate change?

We will look at both threats to invertebrates and their resilience to help us discuss and understand this question. In closing, we will discuss a Salt Spring Island Community Science Sea Star Bioblitz planned for August.
