SUMMARY:New Pests\, New Problems: Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Non-native insects are a major forest health threat across the U.S. These pests can easily be moved through infested materials and due to global trade and travel\, they continue to spread across the southeast. Recently two new pests have been found in North Carolina – the spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula)\, discovered in June 2022\, and the elm zigzag sawfly (Aproceros leucopoda)\, discovered in August 2022. Both species originate from parts of Asia and can now be found in several states across the U.S. Spotted lanternfly is a phloem feeder that causes damage to agricultural and ornamental plant species. Elm zigzag sawfly is a defoliator that targets elm species. What challenges will these invasive pests cause across the southeast? In this webinar\, Dr. Kelly Oten will discuss these new pests and the problems they may cause.

SUMMARY:Healthy Habitats for Healthy Wildlife
DESCRIPTION:Habitat biodiversity and connectivity are intricately tied to species populations and the ability to mitigate many wildlife diseases. From backyard songbirds with conjunctivitis to white-tailed deer with hemorrhagic disease\, forests and their stewards can play an important role in the health of native wildlife. \nPresenter Sarah Van de Berg is the wildlife health biologist with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission. She started her wildlife biology career chasing weasels around the woods for the State of Connecticut and joined the NCWRC wildlife health program in 2019. While she spends most of her time behind a desk supporting the agency’s disease research efforts\, her favorite days are the ones that leave her boots muddy and her clothes smelling of bug spray.
