Today I learned they have wild bison in Poland.

I hope they let her live out her life with the bison

Go Thelma! Take control of your own destiny.

I loved this story. :-)

She now identifies as a bison, and preferes the pronouns they and them 🐃

I read about this earlier. 1997 in Costa Rica. Organic peels, used as experimental green fertilizer. Unfortunately they stopped this after other juice companies tried to sue them for "illegal waste disposal" and stuff (or more like "they dont have to pay for disposal, why do have we to?")

Composting is one of the few things humans can do to repair a small part of the damage we've done to the planet. We owe it to future generations and all the other life on this planet.

What does TIL mean?

Composting, the forest of the forest of the future.

This is cool! Not the best idea, but at least there's now a forrest!

Good on those other competitors for standing up for him!

Good for the other competitors who were obviously before their time.

This sort of chops down the people who defend their elderly relatives racism "because of the times" it was never the time it was always thr people

Good lord the US has a shameful legacy.

The judge? I hope he was recalled. Competitors were honest and fair, that's not that usual.

Smoke makes them sleepy. As long as the fire avoids the hive itself they would be perfectly fine.

FANTASTIC

Most of the Plains states (from the Appalachians to the Rockies, Gulf of Mexico to the Arctic Ocean) used to part of a massive inland sea (Niobraran Sea) during the Cretaceous. I always have to remind myself that just because that land looks one way now, doesn't mean that it can't change again due to climate change or general tectonics.

Uh the Mississippi doesn't go into Michigan.

So I don't think that at the time they are talking about it was a river: instead the North American continent was divided in two by a shallow sea that connected what was the Arctic ocean with what became the gulf of Mexico. This would explain the Michigan connection as the entire region that became the Great Lakes was underwater. After the sea closed due to the rising of the continent and merging of tectonic plates, there was an ice age and the entire northern region of the North America, including the Great Lakes was under ice. When the ice melted the Mississippi was born. Whoever posted this is conflating two epochs and drawing erroneous conclusions.

needs a little more facts since Michigan is several hundred miles from the Miss. River...... In 1848, the Illinois and Michigan Canal opened to connect Lake Michigan with the Mississippi River through the Illinois River to promote commerce.

There also used to be an ocean in the middle of the U.S. In Kansas you'll find marine fossils everywhere.

This should be everywhere in the world.

Sadly, this is not totally true, hotels and parks have blocked the access to the beaches, and tthe goverment allow this, so you have to find a "public access" in order to go to the beach. Some hotels even put some barriers in the beach, so only their guest can use it.
