I have been an environmental science teacher at a local university for ten years. My classes are centered around habitat conservation and environmental health. My love for nature inspired me to start a non-profit organization specializing in ecological news and fun interviews with wildlife professionals. I wrote Nature Tails because I wanted to engage, educate, and inspire young naturalists about the beauty of nature. I am also a wildlife rehabilitator of small mammals. I've cared for and released hundreds of precious animals back into the wild.
