Start Their AdventureWhat I love most about nature is its capability and instinct to do things we never think about much, like trees communicating and exchanging nutrients with each other. Insects live in colonies and have different jobs, similar to the trees, so I'd say a good amount of animals living together are like human communities, and if we didn't exist, would thrive. There are other examples of nature doing fascinating things in animal adaptations.
I am a big fan of wolves, because they live much like we do, considering the things they do for each other, like a pack of wolves adopting an orphaned pup. It's also cool that they live in individual packs, each with their own territory, just like people do today. Of course, there are plenty of things we don't know about every animal, so wolves might be even better survivors than I'm mentioning here.
I enjoy nature journaling and just viewing really, because you can notice so many interesting things that way. It gives you a chance to think about things in different ways and really learn to respect the many plants and animals around you.
