It is hardly news that our planet is on the brink of ecological disaster. Yet amid the alarming headlines, a grassroots restoration movement, comprised largely of everyday people and sponsored by organizations like The Nature Conservancy, has sprouted up and become the most vital environmental force in America. This compelling story of heroism and tenacious human spirit-- the first book to look at this momentous new movement--brings alive one of its most astonishing victories. Once a thriving habitat, Vestal Grove, a tract of land along the Chicago River, was abandoned and on the edge of oblivion. But Steve Packard, a charismatic, modern-day Thoreau, was determined to bring it back. With a small troop of volunteers, he began clearing the land only to make an amazing discovery: Vestal Grove was a long-lost ecosystem. Neither prairie nor forest, it was a living community so finely turned that only certain flora and fauna could live in its unique dapple of sun and shade. The challenge was to unearth its ecological Rosetta stone and find the secrets of its survival. Little did Packard and the others know just how wondrous those secrets would be. A page-turning mystery, inspirational drama, and uplifting testament to a new breed of American pioneer, Miracle Under the Oaks is an important book for everyone--environmentalists, lovers of natures, dedicated gardeners, and the new generation that will inherit the earth.Binding Type: Paperback

Can be hard on teeth
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Multi Color
My dog likes these. I used to let her chew them all the time but after the Vet told me that something with a very hard plastic and break dog's teeth, I just fill these up with peanut butter and freeze them. Only give them to keep her occupied when I leave and can't take her along. So just be careful because of their teeth, and the edges so become hard and pokey when chewed on after time.

Indestructible
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Multi Color
Ordered these on a sale..I thought there were 4 bones, but only 2...I have 2 American bullies and 2 Micro bullies..All heavy chewers..These work perfectly for them and they love them...I actually had to order another pack full price so that there was 1 for each dog. Happy with my purchase, happier with the sale price but all 4 like them and can't destroy them so it's a good purchase.

My Pup Said No Thank You
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Multi Color, Color: Green, Pattern Name: Multi Color
⭐☆☆☆☆
My dog usually loves toys like this, so I was excited about them—especially since the colors were fun and it came as a pack of two. Unfortunately, my dog didn’t like these at all and kept choosing her older chew toys instead. They just didn’t hold her interest, which was disappointing. Overall, not worth the money for us.

Update after a week of having this toy
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Multi Color
I thought these were going to be more like a hard rubber but they are a very hard plastic.
Keeps my dog busy but best to be supervised while chewing on it.
I don’t let her have it when I’m not around so she doesn’t damage her teeth.
*UPDATE*
The dogs are absolutely obsessed with these toys.
I was worried at first it was going to hurt their teeth and gums but they don’t.
These have been a great addition to their millions of toys lol.
Very happy with my purchase
