Climate change is driving range shifts for many different beings. Although shifting their ranges can facilitate species' survival, it can also separate human communities from their relatives and lifeways. The impacts of wildlife range shifts are especially pronounced for Tribal Nations, whose jurisdictions are fixed in place.

On Monday, November 24 at 12:00 pm CT, Ally Scott, Deputy Midwest Tribal Resilience Liaison for the MW CASC, will share what she is learning about wildlife range shifts and Tribal lands in the Midwest region, and why place-based perspectives are important when considering the impacts of range shifts under climate change.
