Invasive species can cause extinction of plants and animals, reducing biodiversity, and alteration of ecosystem. Over 40% of rare species are threatened by invasive species, and cost billions of dollars to control.
On this hike learn about the origins of invasive species, as well as their impact on native plants and animals and their habitats. Hikers will also learn how to identify plants, both native and nonnative, during winter months.
Weather appropriate clothing and sturdy boots are recommended for this .75-mile hike. Hike begins at Sun and Shade Trailhead.
Bernheim members $10; non-members $15
Registration required by 4 p.m. the day prior to the program.
