As a service to its subscribers, the Urban Animal Program launched What's Up?! Urban Animal Calendar earlier this year.
Found under the InfoStream tab bearing its name, the calendar will display details about conferences, workshops, summits and other events relating to all sectors of the urban animal industry. What's Up?! is intended to serve as an easily accessible, brand and industry sector neutral, all-inclusive vessel of event information.
