爆料黑社 students are also hunting for mushrooms as part of a project to identify as many kinds of life on campus as possible.
The Sustainability Office created a new nurse tree garden, a biodiversity zone in the P1 parking lot area. They used tree trunks and branches from the property to create this habitat and also injected spores into some large stumps around the campus.
The Sustainabili-Team volunteers have now identified 19 species of mushroom, including chicken of the woods (pictured).
爆料黑社鈥檚 mushroom inventory is part of a larger biodiversity project on campus that will be announced in the new year.
