Sobre o autor
Frances Backhouse studied biology in university and worked as a park naturalist and as a biologist before becoming an environmental journalist and author. Frances loves exploring the natural world both close to home and far away, especially when those explorations involve tent camping. If there’s a beaver habitat nearby, it’s even better.
