Did you learn anything today? Because I did. A new word: extirpated.
What does it mean, you ask, impatiently I'm sure. Well it means a species no longer existing in the wild in Alberta (or whichever jurisdiction you are currently in), but occurring elsewhere in the wild. Fascinating stuff. I also read about the 30+ different names for liverwort.
What's liverwort you ask, on the edge of your seat. It's a plant - check out this link for a bunch of pictures of green things.
And why am I learning these things at my job, you ask, this time in an exacerbated manner. The answer: no fucking clue.
Incidentally, I got 51% in grade 11 biology, so the fact that this type of reading is part of my job now, is beyond hilarious.
