"Tortuguita Forest Defender" Ink on Watercolor Paper - 18" X 24" “The right kind of resistance is peaceful because that's where we win. We're not going to beat them at violence." -  Esteban Paez Terán - AKA - “Tortuguita” For those of you who do not know about this struggle, I recommend getting familiar with it. Weelaunee Forest, Cop City, and the murder of Esteban Paez Terán. They died of 57 gunshot wounds. At the time of the shooting, the family claims Terán's hands were up, based on independent autopsy results showing bullet exit wounds in both hands.

In Weelaunee forest and surrounding forests.

Ngl, I'm terrified and excited. If we find something (unlikely but there's a chance) then we may be able to show that Weelaunee is worth protecting. Which is exciting in a sense but also my face and name will be associated with the forest if my PI decides to publish the findings.
