Amid giant lotus and water lillies at the Noxubee National Wildlife Refuge, Dusty Foreman (l) and Joe Pate collect aquatic invertebrates. They were participants in the recent Natural Resources Summer Camp sponsored by the College of Forest Resources and Mississippi Forestry Commission. Invertebrates are environmental indicators of wetland quality and critical food for wildlife and fish.
