I just heard about a rare one in Wisconsin - someone I know knows someone that has land that includes original prairie and there is an almost extinct plant on that property. The local University has been studying the land for years, but a grad student stole seeds from this plant multiple years in a row and sold them - the landowner shut down access to the University, ending a 20 year study by a tenured prof.

Hot take - any book authors who want to chime in and share what you guys feel about a statement like that?

I was gonna say botany will pay too

That is an S tier domain name/title

The title is misleading. There was nothing in the article comparing/contrasting/linking botany and crime.

I'm aware of this guy but the presentation is a bit full on for me. My buddy who is in to botany says apparently his podcasts are really good: https://open.spotify.com/show/2zJDjluBz6qVCGrF1I8JhP

I listened to his book, Concrete Botany[1], while doing my gardening last month. I really enjoyed it even as a long time watcher of his YouTube channel. I don't know if I could have read it because it does seem to drag on a bit but it was worth it for his narration.

one of my favorite youtubers but I feel like if you're linking directly to a reading list the title of your post should reflect that
