Today in History

Today is Endangered Species Day.

A suggestion of a way to celebrate is to find a suitable sidewalk and use your colored chalk to create an image of a favorite endangered species.

An example: I believe that Sage Grouse in North American are now considered "threatened" with a species in Colorado and Utah seen as endangered with extinction. I wasn't aware of this concern until recently.

The Western Gray Squirrel is on the list of endangered species for the PNW. I will draw this squirrel in chalk on the sidewalk after it's done raining!
