In dry, cold, or heavily disturbed regions, it may take 500 to even 1000 years!
Soil is a living and slowly renewing resource. Protecting what we have is much easier than rebuilding what we lose.

Red foxes are very resourceful in coping with cold weather conditions. They stay warm by curling up into little balls and wrapping themselves in their big, bushy tails.

Our @OhioDivWildlife staff & partners at @OhioState, @ToledoZoo & @USFWS released 30 Lake Sturgeon @ the Richards Boat Ramp recently. Lake Sturgeon are a state-endangered species. Fish were radio tagged as part of a preliminary study to assess post-stocking movement. Great work!
