During the walk\, we will discuss echolocation and how to safely watch bats. Come out for an extraordinary night of education and fun!  \n\n\n\nLEADER BIO   \n\n\n\nDanielle Dagenais began her bat career in 2011\, while pursuing a Master of Science assessing bat foraging activity over vineyards in the Okanagan Valley. During her studies\, she volunteered for numerous bat projects\, including projects being conducted in Stanley Park. Over the years\, she has helped monitor bat populations in the park\, as well as netted bats and led talks and walks in Stanley Park. Danielle is currently the Regional Coordinator for the Community Bat Programs of BC (bcbats.ca)\, the Outreach Coordinator for the South Coast Bat Conservation Society (scbats.org) and has her own consulting company (EcoEd). Through her company\, she provides bat education to schools and youth groups and conducts bat box assessments across the region. In addition\, she hosts bat building workshops in the area\, often partnering with municipality staff to ensure boxes are installed\, monitored\, and maintained properly. Since 2017\, Dagenais has had the pleasure of helping with important bat research in the Greater Vancouver area.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThis program will meet at the Stanley Park Pavilion (located near the Stanley Park Bus Loop and Rose Garden).

Since time immemorial\, Coast Salish peoples have lived reciprocally with the land\, harvesting and cultivating foods and medicines and practicing ceremony. The abundance of these lands and waters\, which enables us to live\, work\, and play here today\, is a result of the past and on-going stewardship and advocacy of the Coast Salish peoples.
