Travel Tips
A year and a half of lockdowns and delayed plans have left many of us dreaming of our next great adventure. With countries across the globe now open to Americans, Nat Hab travelers are getting back into the field and immersing themselves in spectacular nature destinations once again.
African Safaris
At times, wildlife conservationists do things that might look a bit strange or even questionable to the rest of us. And seeing a rhino tied by its legs and suspended from a helicopter—even though it’s to move the animal away from poachers—is one example that is uncomfortable for most of us to watch.

Last week, here in the Midwest in mid-March, I spotted my first robin of the year. My mother used to say that seeing a robin was a sure sign that spring couldn’t be far behind. We now know that such a notion isn’t exactly accurate.
