"Arrived and displaced native peoples" had to throw that in didn't you?
They can bring back a dead wolf from hundreds of years ago but they won’t bring back something useful like the American chestnut
And then the Europeans came.
Join us on Friday, May 16, 2025, from 11:30AM – 1:00PM (EPT), for the next LIVE Chestnut Chat.
Special guests Duane McKenna and Michael Charles will discuss beetle evolution and the rediscovery of a lost species, the greater chestnut weevil.

Huge thanks to our amazing Bonner Scholars, Maddy, our dedicated Farm Assistant, and Gabbie, our creative Social Media Intern for all their hard work this semester! We’re so grateful for their contributions and can’t wait to welcome them back in August for another season of collaboration.

Why don't they make a weevil that can't have babies? And put them in the wild? So it'll past it to overs so they'll die out!!!
