Where
do
you
look
for
li.er?
Li#er
is
everywhere,
even
on
this
rela2vely
manicured
campus.
When
you
study
the
brown
food
web,
you
see
habitats
everywhere
For
example
some
of
the
finest
li#er
is
o?en
embedded
in
a
smooth
lawn.
To
gather
it,
make
your
hand
look
like
a
li#le
rake,

run
it
through
the
lawn.

underneath
snow

get
you
