Mayr technically studied medical sciences, but he was a true and fanatic/fantastic birder and this was the reason for him choosing Greifswald over any other university – he wanted to go birding there.

Fish and Wildlife Service tells states when they may propose a hunting season on cranes, and has ultimate jurisdiction over whether the states get their seasons.

It’s a real shame, though, because these battlefields can be a real haven for wildlife and are often located in parts of the country that don’t otherwise have a lot of preserved land. While Civil War-related national parks are recognized for their historical importance, their ecological significance is often overlooked.

Phenology is a vital science. Yes, it’s vital to leash your dog and teach him to be respectful of wildlife, but if you can manage that, he will make a phenologist out of you. Among other things, it has provided some of the earliest and most compelling evidence for global warming. But good phenology is hard.
