Abstract:

Having recently sold his family's one hundred-acres Charlotte property, David Henderson worries about what will happen to the old farm. He knows that the area will soon become new condos, but he is really worried about the abundant wildlife that lives on the property. Henderson realizes, however, that he has seen wildlife throughout Charlotte. Animals have adapted to their changing environment and continue to flourish. With a little luck, the wildlife living on his family's old farm will continue to thrive and make their home Charlotte.
