Doing my part to protect my health and my planet
Saturday is the birthday of a great personality and animal lover who inspired a generation of zookeepers and conservationists. Steve Irwin would be 58 years old. We lost him way too soon, but I feel somewhat fortunate that his legacy lives on in his children and the Australia Zoo.
In the last Tabata in the Joss Whedon tribute series, I want to celebrate my own personal favorite Joss Whedon creation.
