May everyone try to channel a fraction of the empathy, care, and kindness that Jane showed to all living beings.
The world was a better place with her in it 💚

Thank you Jane Goodall for all your tireless work to protect our natural world.
You will be greatly missed, though your legacy will live on along the road you paved for women in science and youth in conservation, environmental and humanitarian work. 💚

Researchers take samples from Seneca Lake in effort to figure out what causes the 'Seneca Drums'
After hundreds, if not thousands of years of uncertainty, scientists from Cornell University and SUNY ESF have teamed up to try to figure out what causes the so called 'Seneca Drums'.

Went for a walk on a fairly maintained trail. Even if you don’t think you’re at risk for tick exposure, you should still check yourself if you go outside! Fortunately found this deer tick crawling across my hand.
