McDowell Sonoran Conservancy: Sonoran Sundays – Tarantula Wasps & Giant Desert Hairy Scorpions! Arthropods of the Sonoran Desert

March 9, 2025 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Free

Did you know that 84% of all animal species are Arthropods and they have a major role in maintaining ecosystems as pollinators, recyclers of nutrients, scavengers and food for other animals?

Join Legacy Steward Rich Cochran, an expert on arthropods, for an in-depth talk on some of the fascinating insects and arachnids that inhabit our Sonoran Desert.  He will provide an up-close look at some fun and interesting species from his vast collection, including a Tarantula Wasp, a Giant Desert Hairy Scorpion, and more.
