My wife is an awesome field biologist. And now as a pregnant field biologist she’s wondering if anyone can recommend field clothes that worked for others while pregnant and conducting field work? Let us know!!!!! (Bonus points for fire retardant)!!
I served on a panel with Peter Pritchard once on Alligator Snapping Turtles. I read his Alligator Snapping Turtle book hundreds of times. The world needs more conservationists like him. orlandosentinel.com/news/env…
