Beavers of the Fur Trade (Read More)

Sam Wilson, Furbearer Program Manager from Nebraska Game and Parks Commission, will speak on the importance of beavers in the fur trade 200 years ago. Beavers have a long and complex history with humans, the environment, and the ecosystems they inhabit. Join us for a deep dive into the vital roles beavers fill and how these large rodents have changed the world. This program is part of an ongoing speaker series highlighting the rich history of Nebraska and Fontenelle Forest. The speaker series is in conjunction with a new exhibit - Nebraska's Deep Roots - in honor of the 200-year anniversary of the Fontenelle Trading Post. Admission is free for Fontenelle Forest members; regular admission applies for non-members ($11 adults, $10 seniors, $8 children). For more information, visit the speaker series page.
