- This preserve protects sphagnum bogs and a small “eyelet” pond, which represent ecosystems that are now extremely rare in the Puget Trough. Eyelet ponds are open water areas bounded by a quaking mat of sphagnum peat. The preserve includes populations of few-flowered sedge, a state-listed sensitive plant, plus Hatch’s click beetle and Beller’s ground beetle, both state-candidate animal species only found in very good condition sphagnum bogs.
- André the Giant (Wikipedia)
André René Roussimoff (French: [ɑ̃dʁe ʁəne ʁusimɔf]; 19 May 1946 – 28 January 1993), better known by his ring name André the Giant, was a French professional wrestler and actor. Dubbed “the Eighth Wonder of the World”, Roussimoff was known for his great size, which was a result of gigantism caused by excess growth hormones.
