As a biologist, Pepper Trail can appreciate the work of other biologists.
But he REALLY appreciates the work of Charles Darwin, who did so much to teach the world about how biology works.
And it's not an arms-length appreciation; Pepper Trail BECOMES Charles Darwin in a lecture called "Voyage to the Origin of Species" coming to the Southern Oregon University Library today (Feb. 8).
We visit with the biologist--Trail, not Darwin--before the presentation. Monday, February 12, is International Darwin Day.
