Lincoln Center conducts pet-supply drive
FORT COLLINS — The Lincoln Center’s Cozy Coats pet-supply drive, benefiting The Street Dog Coalition, will take place Nov. 3 to Dec. 19.
The drive will begin at The Lincoln Center on Nov. 3 in conjunction with National Geographic Live: Wild Wolves of Yellowstone. The presentation includes guest lecturer Doug Smith, who served as a wildlife biologist at Yellowstone National Park for nearly three decades and studied everything from beavers to birds. He also led the Yellowstone Wolf Project, which reintroduced gray wolves to the park.
During the giving season, The Lincoln Center holds annual donation drives to benefit local charities.
