These are two new courses being taught for the first time. Classes are taught concurrently with NRE 4695 and NRE 3693.
Class will meet for one hour for the last 8-weeks of the Fall 2015 semester, learning about the ecology and biodiversity of Patagonia and
how it has been affected by the livestock industry with special emphasis on the horse. Then we will travel during the winter-break
(January 2016) to the Southernmost part of Chile. We will be camping and visiting ranches, observing wild horses, and making
horse welfare suggestions as well as visiting the famous Torres del Paine National Park. This is an Education Abroad Program!
