news.mongabay.com
North America is the world’s hotspot of salamander diversity. The continent is home to all salamander families but one (Hynobiidae, found only in Asia) and nearly half of all salamander species. The...Fishers and Raccoons are both active in winter. Fishers do not hiberate but raccoons often take extended rest time in frigid weather. Taking a hike at the High Point Preserve can often yield tracks in the fresh snow from Fishers, raccoons, coyotes, and other creatures.
Today is the day--it's #GivingTuesday! Will you double your gift to the Edward L. Rose Conservancy by donating via this post? This snapshot, captured on one of our two floating platforms on Silver Lake, stars two incredible species that call the preserve home. Make twice the difference for our local wildlife by donating to the Conservancy today.
What's better than a donation to nature? Two donations! November 27 is #GivingTuesday, which makes it possible to DOUBLE YOUR DONATION to the Edward L. Rose Conservancy Facebook page.
