Robbie Telfer has a love for the prose, but his heart belongs to nature. He says he wants every Chicagoan to understand the natural history of 40 organisms that are central to the region’s identity, including monarch butterflies and the common bean.
Reset learns more about Telfer’s “The Chicago 40” challenge, and the indigenous species included in the list.
