Any ideas? Considering that I know you may probably have, or know people, who this happens to often?
Seeking Advice:
I have tons of younger minorities (late elementary on) reach out to me to ask for mentoring advice on how to navigate and enter the field of wildlife. I’d like to maybe write an instructional book of some sort? Idk. What format or approach would you take with this?
