UW Extension publication examines prairie dog, human, rangeland relationships

A water-wise gardening workshop will be held by University of Wyoming Extension and the Johnson County Master Gardeners on Saturday, June 20, from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Buffalo Community Garden (across from 30 Fairgrounds Rd).

Participants will learn the principles of water-wise gardening, sometimes called xeriscaping, and will help install native perennial plants in a new demonstration garden bed.

If you’ve ever stayed home sick, you’ve probably experienced the unpleasant temperature swings that accompany a fever. You may remember feeling chilled, then warming up as your fever spiked—a well-established process governed by the autonomic nervous system.

But maybe you also wrapped up in a blanket to keep warm. The science behind this kind of behavioral response is less well understood.
