Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! For a new project + new writer it's very encouraging to receive this kind of feedback. Hoping to share further explorations along similar lines in the near future.

This new article by @htwvmag.bsky.social on Beaver niche construction is fantastic. It’s a synthesis between the Lewontin school and communization theory. It’s nicely written and has a wonderful account of natural history.
