LONESOME GEORGE
The rarest animal in the world today is a giant tortoise which lives in the Galapagos Islands. There is only one Pinta Island tortoise (Geochelone elephantopus abingdoni). It is a male known by his keepers as Lonesome George. And when he dies the Pinta tortoises will be extinct….. read more about Lonesome George here! Update: Fabled bachelor Lonesome George may finally be a father!!!!
In October, we see the Blood Moon travel through the sky. This moon is also called the Shedding Moon or the Falling Leaf Moon, Ten Colds Moon, or Moon of the Changing Season. It’s a time when the nights are crisp and clear, and you can sense a change in the energy around you. Also called the Hunter’s Moon because it is the first Full Moon after the Harvest Moon (the Full Moon nearest the Autumnal equinox) and it gets its name from hunters who tracked and killed their prey by autumn moonlight, stockpiling food for the winter ahead.
