If you live in Jackson Hole or an area with an elk population, you might have recently heard bull elk bugling during the fall rut, or breeding season.

But after investing so much energy in growing antlers, why do bull elk shed them in the winter? Find out the answer on this week's blog!

In order to conserve energy and survive the harsh winter ahead, bull moose start shedding their antlers this time of year. So without antlers, how do you differentiate a male (bull) from a female (cow)? Females are distinguished from bulls without antlers by the white patch beneath their tails. #WildlifeWednesday #wildlifeexpeditionstss Here's a bit of trivia for you all - can you guess how much a bull weighs? (a) 500 lbs (b) 700lbs (c) 1000lbs 📷: Trevor LeClair

This winter break, a number of our Mountain Academy students worked to fulfill their community service hours, due at the beginning of January. Giving back is one of the fundamental values of a Mountain Academy education. Several of our Jackson campus 5th graders were "caught in the act" in last week's Jackson Hole News&Guide's "Circling the Square" by Connie Owen: "[C]atherine Maguire, an elementary school teacher at Mountain Academy, and four of her fifth grade students were seen at the Pioneer Homestead Apartments a few days ago brushing snow off cars. Residents appreciated the work of Hayden, Harrison, Eliza and Fiona. The kids are learning at a young age that happiness is found in service."

It's the first #meetthegradsmonday. This week the Graduate Program of Teton Science Schools is highlighting Alex! Alex grew up in eastern Washington and attended University of Washington, studying biocultural anthropology and archeology for her undergrad. Before coming to TSS, she worked in Cultural Resource Management while also coaching high school dance. Alex's favorite memory so far as a TSS grad student was a camping trip she and some grads took up to Beula Lake in Yellowstone. She's looking forward to trying to intertwine her passions for anthropology and education this year. Q: When you're not in class, where would we find you? A: Enjoying a cold beverage, watching reality TV, procrastinating on homework, and trying to make people laugh (usually at the same time) Q: If you had one food to eat for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Covid-19 has been an ongoing challenge for teachers and schools across the rural landscape. So that is why we are so heartened when our Grants in Place Fellows share their personal stories of good progress. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Melissa Wyman is a 2019-20 Rural Schools Collaborative Grants in Place Fellow in the Hartford School District - which became the 15th member of Teton Science School's Place Network this year. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ While the pandemic certainly changed the nature of her action research project, Melissa has "persevered with her colleagues and students, and their school community continues to move forward in pursuit of place-based education strategies." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Congratulations to Melissa and her community and to the New England Hub partners, Plymouth State University and the Rural Educational Leaders Network, for making this connection possible. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Read the full story at http://bit.ly/3uaSKVw.

Recently our Field Education program had the chance to spend a day with our friends at @coombsoutdoors. We received the kindest note, we just had to share.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "I wanted to send some gratitude your way for helping to facilitate an amazing Nordic day with our participants. The kids all had an amazing weekend getting out on TSS gear and honestly so did I! I am truly inspired by how many people were able to come together to make this happen for our participants and all of us at Coombs are so grateful for it." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ -Caroline Drayton, Program Coordinator | Coombs Outdoors
