Thomas Luloff. Creepy, Crawly & Crucial: The Secret Lives of Garden Wildlife
Your garden is more than just a pretty place—it’s a stage for some of nature’s weirdest and most wonderful performances. From slugs that secretly pollinate trilliums to earwigs that double as pest control, this talk will uncover the surprising and often overlooked roles of some of our least-loved garden visitors. Join us to discover the strange, sneaky, and surprisingly beneficial behaviours of the creatures lurking amongst your leaves and flowers. You may never look at your garden the same way again!
Thom is a Professor in the School of Environmental Resources and Natural Sciences, Fleming College. He is the Senior Wildlife Biologist at Kawartha Wildlife Centre, the Liaison to Nature Canada for Bird-Friendly Cities, and currently studying to become a Master Gardener and an apiarist.
