Project Coyote, Michelle Lute&Worth A Dam, Heidi Perryman with Coexist Ep. 179 - a podcast by IQ Podcasts

Michelle Lute is part of the Project Coyote. Project Coyote is a national non-profit organization based in Northern California whose mission is to promote compassionate conservation and coexistence between people and wildlife through education, science and advocacy. Our representatives, advisory board members and supporters include scientists, educators, ranchers and citizen leaders who work together to change laws and policies to protect native carnivores from abuse and mismanagement, advocating coexistence instead of killing. We seek to change negative attitudes toward coyotes, wolves and other misunderstood predators by replacing ignorance and fear with understanding, respect and appreciation.

Heidi Perryman is a child psychologist who became an ‘accidental’ beaver advocate when a family moved into her hometown creek. She started the non-profit ‘Worth A Dam’ to defend the beavers in Martinez - along the way becoming interested in helping other cities learn how and why to co-exist with these important animals. Since 2008 she has organized an annual beaver festival and taught others about their key role in the ecosystem. Beavers are especially needed in this state as their dams increase biodiversity and offer protection to our dwindling salmon population. As California faces ever more drought years and fire events, Heidi believes it is essential to coexist with these important ‘water-savers’.
