Lori Naumann, a devoted wildlife conservationist and long-time employee of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, recently passed unexpectedly. As an invaluable team member of the DNR’s Nongame Wildlife Program, Lori was most known for her creation and passionate leadership of the DNR EagleCam. Lori also partnered on the DNR FalconCam, led the Nongame Wildlife Program’s tax-time donation campaigns, partnered on many critical habitat license plate designs, was an ambassador and hands-on field technician with the Minnesota Loon Restoration Project, and helped establish the nongame permitting process.
Lori was a dedicated public servant with the state for 39 years. She spent 35 of those with the DNR, admirably building lasting relationships throughout the department, with our partners and the public. Her contributions to conservation leave a legacy that will be remembered, and her knowledge, dedication and spirited determination will be dearly missed.
