Oh man, depending on the temperature I bet you'd find some cool stuff if you flipped those logs. Almost certainly some redbacked salamanders, and if you're lucky some tiger or blue-spotted. I'll be hopefully going through Madison this summer with my wife and son, with any luck we'll find some of those :D
It was established in the late 19th C during the Progressive Era. The country had undergone unprecedented immigration from regions that had formerly exported almost nobody at all to the New World.
Southern and Eastern Europeans different in religion from earlier immigrants and from each other, who had to be assimilated to American (WASP, then) ways in the most efficient way, in masse.
It worked remarkably well, in part because the new Americans were mostly ready to ditch the old country's worst features, and make some money.
That's not a stupid question. The glaciers killed off worms, and since worms don't move very fast, for a long time, there were no worms in northern forests. This meant that fallen leaves weren't reduced to mulch and northern forests had a different type of forest floor. Over time, though, people have brought worms to northern forests, most notably by fishers. Still, they don't spread very fast so there are still worm-free forests.
Someone in Ukraine put out a propaganda video that has Russians really upset. Ukrainian government denies they had anything to do with it. I'll link below, but be forewarned it's definitely NSFW (no sexual content, though).

Headline: Brittney Griner (WNBA star) is stuck in Russia due to unconfirmed reasons. Shes been held for months now.
Remember when the son of a former NBA player got stuck in China for allegedly shoplifting and Trump got safe passage out China?
No such luck with Biden in the WH.
Ran across this today. Ukrainians have watched the 1984 'Red Dawn' movie and are tagging disabled Russian armor with "Wolverines"

Lets clear out the dead wood!
You’re not supposed to notice Biden’s dementia.

Do they have worms in this forest?
That's not a stupid question. The glaciers killed off worms, and since worms don't move very fast, for a long time, there were no worms in northern forests.

Did someone mention worms in northern forests?
Why yes, worms make a big difference. Here is an article showing forest floors with and without worms.

Whoa. There's a lot of interest in forest worms today. I wonder why.
What does this say about America today?

She was arrested trying to enter Russia (she plays for a Russian team during the WNBA off-season) with a vial of hash oil in her luggage.

Death and Taxes come together for the first time in several decades today, though technically the due date for one of them has been moved to Monday.

Imagine no journalists.
