Central Methodist University Environmental Science Club Faculty and students who get outside, support sustainability and manage the CMU Wildlife Sanctuary.

We are an interdisciplinary group of faculty, staff, and students who get out in nature, support sustainability and help with the stewardship of the CMU-owned Besgrove-Hodge Wildlife Sanctuary where we are working to restore native grasslands and improve our patch of forest.

CMU ALUM Justan Blair does a great job talking about forestry and bids in the Ozarks. And he might just mention an old professor he worked with along the way…😉

What can birds tell us about the health of Missouri's forests? A lot more than you might think.

In the latest episode of It's In Our Nature, host Adam McLane sits down with Justan Blair, wildlife biologist with U.S. Forest Service - Mark Twain National Forest, to explore birds and the stories they reveal about the landscape around us.

Whether you're an experienced birder, a casual nature lover, or someone who's never picked up a pair of binoculars, you'll come away with a deeper appreciation for the birds around you and the role they play in Missouri's forests.

Big thanks to everyone that was able to help with our Prescribed Burn on Saturday! We successfully burned about 85% of the 13 acres that were replanted in the native pollinator plant mix. Watch for a big bloom later in the season!
