Efforts to battle the invasive European green crab, which was found in Southeast Alaska for the first time this summer, will be a focus of the 2022 Invasive Species Workshop.
The workshop is a forum for discussing invasive species management activities within Alaska. It offers expert presentations about emerging invasive species science and management issues, highlights efforts to help people learn about and control invasives, and offers training for new and experienced invasive species managers alike.
The Alaska Invasive Species Partnership and the University of Alaska Fairbanks Cooperative Extension Service will host the workshop at the BP Energy Center in Anchorage on Nov. 1-3. The workshop will also be available via Zoom.
Online workshop registration is $50, and in-person workshop registration is $100.
