After ten years on our original site, we felt it was only fitting that we refine our website to reflect the new environmental times. Welcome to our new webpage.

Wild By Nature

WILD BY NATURE, Inc. is dedicated to environmental education for schoolchildren and their teachers. Our logo depicts the humble little field mouse gnawing on the net that has entrapped a lion. The mouse represents each one of us, and our motto “One Person Can Make a Difference,” reminds us that although we are small, our contribution is great. Every child and every schoolteacher should carry this knowledge into the classroom and out in the field.  

 

WILD BY NATURE aspires to raise suburban consciousness through classroom education and learning on location. Our mission is to MMHS Ecology Clubeducate, empower, and inspire schoolchildren and their teachers to celebrate their local neighborhood endangered species. 

 

WILD BY NATURE embraces the need to expand eco-tourism through eco-education in remote areas and tribal lands. Attracting a new eco-tourism population to hard-to-reach areas will preserve and enhance the native habitat while stimulating the local economy. It is our goal to model community sustainability based in preserving the integrity of local culture, history, and naturalCopy of DSCN1238 treasures. By engaging small towns and tribes to present their local environment in an erudite format, the result should bolster respect for ancient knowledge and the oral tradition. The proven success of our Eco-Education Models sets an example for small towns and tribes that search for an alternative to industry and gaming.

 

WILD BY NATURE has a few major projects presented herein with an expanded Environmental Education page, including our Eco-Education Models for an Environmental Education Retreat and an Indigenous California Baja Cruise, our Vernal Pools Project, and our Meadows Project. The Meadows Project features the benefits of letting Nature reclaim landscaped areas. On that page you will find links and photos of Suburban Meadows and Urban Meadows. Our Links page includes Professional Links and Academic Links. The Academic Links feature curriculum suggestions with an Environmental Education Reading List and California State Educational Standards. Many of our links are specifically for schoolchildren. Visit our Gallery page for various albums highlighting our projects, models, and ecology clubs. You will especially like our Karuk Fire Tale, the ancient tribal tale of how People got Fire. Read the story as told by tribal member Mary Ike in 1940.

 

As you work to keep our beautiful world intact, remember that David will always conquer Goliath.
