He recently wrote me: We are an abolitionist group and our approach is "Educate, Investigate & Liberate". We are currently doing an investigation on pig farms in Spain, including intensive and extensive/free-range farms (tho extensive ones are scarce since intensive ones are the majority in the industry). Thanks a lot.

After investigating the area between the towns of Araró and Andocutín, I soldiered on to the equally-small town of Iramuco. When I went to see if some water remained in the lake’s eastern basin (it did), I also hoped to find some of my marsh-loving friends. Would some habitat still be available for them on Lake Cuitzeo itself?

There are many strands that make up the scientific investigations into the question, “Where do the birds go?” I do not think we have solved the mystery of bird migration. As Heiman points out herself, there are many migratory species we still know very little about.

Naturally, I had to investigate. The whole reason I was exploring this area can be traced to a report of multiple sightings of small groups of the migratory Yellow-billed Cuckoo.
