Random Nature
I'm Christy Hyman and I am a geographer who loves birds and the outdoors. I talk to academics about how they view nature and how much or how little they embrace it into their lives.

Episode 5
This episode introduces us to my friend and collaborator Jim Anderson, PhD. Anderson recounts his experiences growing up on a dairy farm in rural Wisconsin, emphasizing activities like cow-milking, fishing, hunting, and trapping muskrats. He reflects on the harsh realities of life and death in nature(content warning), shaped by childhood adventures and a strong connection to wildlife, ultimately leading to a career as a wildlife biologist.
