The Rockland Public Library is pleased to present this recording of our event with Kirk Gentalen.

“Fishers are King” is the third (and dare we say “final”) chapter in a trilogy of wildlife appreciation presentations presented by the Maine Coast Heritage Trust. Following the pace set by the well-received “Owls are Easy” talk and then its sequel “Otters are Easier,” “Fishers are King” dives headfirst into what makes everyone’s favorite/least favorite Mustelid (weasel family) fishers. Personal stories, photos, and videos make this a Thursday night full of education and appreciation as we explore the concept of Fishers in Midcoast Maine. Tracking tips and advice are shared, as well as reviews (often uncensored) of helpful tools.

Kirk Gentalen is the Fox Island Regional Steward for the Maine Coast Heritage Trust (MCHT) and has 28 years of environmental education experience from all over the country. Kirk’s main hobby is to be entertained by the natural world, and he has found that the “big fisher in his neighborhood” is a source of boundless bundles of entertainment. Currently living on the St George peninsula with his family, Amy and Leif, Kirk writes a nature column (“Nature Bummin”) for MCHT (mcht.org/story-tag/nature-bummin) and edits the Vinalhaven Sightings Report (vinalhavensightings.blogspot.com). And then he goes outside.
