Speaker Series
2022-02-09 18:00 - 19:30 | Community Center
Kiki Mihok is a passionate conservationist, wildlife presenter and multimedia host. She began her conservation work by zookeeping, where she unearthed her joy for teaching others about wildlife and conservation careers. She is best known for her short-form educational videos, such as her series Keeper Talks with Kiki, where she uses animal facts, comedy and shocking stories to connect all ages back to their inner-child’s wonder for wildlife.
Kiki will be focusing on one of her favorite topics: misunderstood animals.
Join Kiki at Piedmont Park as she discusses skunks, raccoon, opossums and other “unlovable” animals to redeem the fun and intriguing parts of their lives that make them absolutely fascinating!
