If you build it …
Last fall I installed 250-ft of edging & native plants around my house, replacing existing ornamentals. One year later, I’ve got my first batch of monarch butterfly caterpillars 🌼 🌱 🐛 🦋 😊

Need some help — does anyone know of a national dataset that georeferences caves and/or major springs?
Particularly interested in the Southeastern US.

As Leader of the North Carolina Coop Unit, I can attest the model is unchanged. We lead high-impact projects for our state agency partner on reservoir fisheries, whitetail deer, black bears, elk restoration, alligators, etc, all while training the next generation of biologists
Fam — here’s a nice overview of the 43 nationwide Cooperative Fish & Wildlife Research Units, which have been a lasting model for wildlife research since the 1930s, created by wildlife science pioneers such as Aldo Leopold & Ding Darling. 🐟🦌🦆🦃🦎

Y’all — I went in an absolute native plant bender last fall having planted >75 native wildflowers & shrubs species in gardens around my house in Chatham Co, NC. First bloom of the year is … Robin’s Plantain — a hardy ground-cover that can even grow in dry-shade micro-habitats 🌱 😎

What a week! I spent two days sampling the Pee Dee River in southern NC where I got to help NC Wildlife Resources Commission biologists collect the iconic Robust Redhorse sucker. A species whose numbers are up due to a decade-long captive propagation conservation effort 😍🟥🐴🐟
