While humans battle the elements this time of year, native plants and animals in the UW Arboretum are mounting their own struggle to survive.
On a recent â??Nature of the Winterâ? walk, a handful of visitors to the Arboretum explored the prairies, woodlands and savannas near the visitor center to get a glimpse of the survival strategies. The walk is one of several winter educational programs offered by the Arboretum.
