What does JC love most about nature?

From JC: I love the fact that it can go in any direction. Nature is always evolving and changing which keeps us challenged and always gives new opportunities to learn.


What is JC's favorite animal—and why?

My favorite animal is hard to choose because I love learning about all animals and ecosystems. But if I had to pick one, it would be a tiger. Tigers are strong, smart, and beautiful, and their stripes help them hide in the forest. They are important predators that help keep nature balanced. I think it’s important to protect animals like tigers and the habitats they live in.


What is JC's favorite outdoor activity?

My favorite outdoor activity is exploring nature and looking for animals. I like hiking, turning over logs, and observing insects, reptiles, and other wildlife. I enjoy building ecosystems and learning how different species live together. Being outside helps me discover new things about nature and how animals survive in the wild.
