Schweitzer Klassifikation
In the woods or knee-deep in a creek bed, looking for fossils, is where you can usually find Tamara York-if you are lucky and can keep up. Tamara grew up exploring the woods near her grandparents' farm outside Connersville, Indiana. Her passion for the outdoors and "goofing off" brought her to Purdue University, where she graduated with a B.S. in Wildlife Management. She and her husband have climbed Mt. Katahdin in Baxter State Park, Maine, and enjoy hiking with their daughters in state parks, wildlife areas, and forests in Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. Tamara is a trained and seasoned naturalist with more than 25 years of field experience and has worked with the Indiana and Ohio departments of natural resources. She is an award-winning public speaker. She spends her free time hiking, writing, creating videos, and gardening.
