Hi new friends! I’m Carly and I’m a biology professor who studies animal behavior and physiology. I also run a small sanctuary where I have a menagerie of rescue critters, grow some food, and try to be the best earthling I can be. Welcome to my world of wonderful creatures!

Writing a book is a strange process because you spend years dedicated to the work, and then when it goes into the world, all you can think is...well, I hope it doesn't suck.
Thanks for letting me know it didn't suck, @ScienceNews!
