Strychnos spinosa, or the Monkey Orange tree, is indigenous to tropical and subtropical Africa, including South Africa. Seeds of the fruit are toxic. Fruits and leaves are eaten by many species of wildlife, including elephants. The plant species is used in traditional medicine for treating snakebite, ulcers, wounds, headache, gastric and intestinal problems, venereal diseases, leprosy, diarrhea, and fever. #treesofinstagram #ethnomedicine #southafrica #conservation

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived." ~Henry David Thoreau #thoreau #nature #intothewoods #hiking

Gifts for the laibon in exchange for an interview.

Gifts for the laibon in exchange for an interview. Laibons have the power in Samburu society to remove curses, to protect individuals from harm, to restore health or fertility, to see into the future, and occasionally, to place curses. As payment he requested sugar and tea for his family, and beer and miraa to help him enhance his abilities as a seer. :) Miraa is Catha edulis, known in parts of east Africa as ghat, and has alkaloid compounds that act as a stimulant and appetite suppressant. I was not allowed to take pictures of the laibon, as he believed that photography may weaken his powers. #Samburu #Kenya #laibon #culturalresearch #writing #culturalfiction #thesingingwell

Playing with my macro lens to admire the beauty of spring. Redbud blossoms, bloodroot, an unfolding fern, and a tiny little plant that looks like a cluster of stuffed olives hiding among a carpet of green grass. Nature is awe-inspiring in her perpetual cycle of life. #spring #botany #macrolens #momentlenses #redbud #bloodroot #plantsofinstagram #naturephotography

Today I discuss the COVID-19 global pandemic from the one health, or ecohealth perspective. In this two-part series I present the epidemiology and viral characteristics of coronaviruses, and provide an ecological context for the current pandemic. If you are interested in learning more about the origins of the current pandemic, visit the link in my bio. Feel free to share. Happy to answer questions in a follow up episode. As a veterinary virologist, epidemiologist, and double board certified in veterinary microbiology (virology specialty) and veterinary preventive medicine (public health, epidemiology, and infectious disease), and as someone who has worked in and studied zoonotic diseases of animal origin for years, this is a subject of particular interest and familiarity to me. #covid19 #pandemic #zoonoses #coronavirus #epidemiology #virology #dvm #vetmed #infectiousdisease #ACVPM #ACVM #ecohealth #onehealth #diseaseinterface #preparednotscared

Mama and baby. Mama is showing temporal gland secretion from a modified apocrine sweat gland. This secretion is used for conspecific olfactory communication and often secretes during times of excitement, stress, or arousal. #elephants #mamaandbaby #africanelephant #africa #southafrica #conservation #wildlifeconservation

Maasai warrior or muran, lmurran. The head is shav

Maasai warrior or muran, lmurran. The head is shaved at the time of circumcision and then the warrior is allowed to grow his hair into plaits, which are heavily ochred for decoration. Plait length generally signifies the time spent as a warrior, although if a close relative dies they will shave their head as a sign of respect and mourning. He carries his rungu as a weapon for protection as well as for guiding and managing his cattle. Scarification is a right of passage for young men as a means of proving courage and preparing for the harsh realities of their life. It is often arbitrarily placed on the face and body. #Kenya #Maasai #Masai #Amboseli #Africa #warrior #writing #culture #peopleofkenya #bookresearch
