Scientist, science writer, professor of science, and K alum Rob Dunn<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Scientist and science writer Rob Dunn \u201997<\/strong> (also an associate professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at North Carolina State University) traveled to the Gulf of St. Lawrence in 2012, on assignment for National Geographic Magazine<\/em> to write about the area\u2019s ecosystem. He fulfilled his obligation and wrote a very fine article (great verbs!) titled “The Generous Gulf.”<\/p>\n

Only months later did Rob learn some back story to his National Geographic<\/em> story–specifically, that he wasn\u2019t the first in his family to make a “tourist” voyage to the Gulf of St. Lawrence. His forebear, one Thomas But (or Butt or Butts), son of the doctor to King Henry VIII, set sail for the Gulf in April of 1536. The voyages of the two relatives, separated by nearly five centuries, nevertheless shared a few similarities. And, THANKFULLY, the voyages differed in other (significant) ways. For example, Rob didn\u2019t kill and eat any of his fellow travelers.<\/p>\n

What Rob did do is write the fascinating back story for the Blog, Your Wild Life<\/em>. It\u2019s a great read, and we recommend it to our readers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
