Reflection/Evaluation
It is interesting to hear from these local experts on wildlife and wild lands issues. despite some occasional technical zoom problems. I am glad to be on their email list. Some of what was discussed I already knew about, but the problems and solutions are similar to the sky island mountains in NM.
