Madagascar’s lemurs are the focus of a free talk by an expert from the University’s Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology (DICE).

The talk, by lecturer in Conservation Biology Dr Charlie Gardner, is entitled Conservation controversies over Madagascar’s lemurs. It will reveal insights from his many years spent working on conservation science and practice in the country.

It will take place in Darwin Lecture Theatre 1 from 18.00 -19.00 on Thursday 9 May. The talk is free and open to all with free parking on the Canterbury campus from 17.00.

The monthly talks have focused on the work of DICE with many of the world’s rarest and most endangered species. The last talk of the year takes place on 13 June and will be about snakes in India.
