Today is World Wildlife Day. While cuddly pandas and ferocious lions come to the minds of many, consider wildlife closer to home. Bees and other pollinators are necessary for human food production. Similarly, birds and other animals spread seeds that increase carbon storage, while still others help manage forests and landscapes that help control wildfires.
