Getting The Reps In
Making good wildlife content - blogs, social media posts, photography (both taking pictures and editing them), or videos - takes a lot of practice. If you don't practice your craft then you will lose those skills.
A few years back, I...
The Killer Awoke Before Dawn
Out here in the mean streets of suburbia, something has been doing some killing. At least once a month, I'll find a hollowed out rabbit or random lagomorph limbs out in my lawn. Who is doing this mass murdering?
The list of suspects...
Pittsburgh Game Drives
I used to piss so much excellence. I went on adventures to see glamorous and sexy beasts, I made all kinds of great wildlife content, and I used to write prolifically. Then, it all stopped. The pandemic, grad school, being an...
Murder Most Fowl
As homesteader chickens go so to goes their predators.
I recently received on outreach from someone that felt that a fisher was vexing their chickens.
Fishers were once extirpated in Pennsylvania, but have started to recolonize the Commonwealth migrating in WV and NY in...

The Audacity Of This B****!
Behold, the regality of her ladyship, the Queen Cheetah (no relation to King Cheetah, which is an actual melanistic trait that very rarely manifests in cheetahs and I would love to see one day).
She surveys her vast realm from atop a termite...
Flesh Eater’s Ball
In August, I was lucky enough to be one of the first, if not the first, Americans allowed back into Kenya after they reopened from their covid lockdown. While in-country, we traveled to the Olare Motorogi Conservancy in western Kenya: home to...
Cristina Mittermeier Appreciation Post
Today, I had the great fortune of listening to a Zoom call (brought to you by the wise wizards of Beneath The Waves) with NatGeo superstar, conservation champion, and all around bad ass Cristina Mittermeier.
She was awesome in the ways that you...
