Caterpillar, Forest Park
Tent caterpillars have a fondness for wild cherry trees where they weave large, communal silk nests. The natural cyanide produced by the tree is ingested by the caterpillar and used as defense against predators.
About Our Art Prints
Signed art prints donated by three extraordinary artists are available for purchase in our art prints store, to support the programs we are engaged in. The prints include, among others, "Last Turn Your Turn" created by Robert Rauschenberg for the Earth Summit, Christo sketches of "The Gates,” a public art event by Christo and his wife Jeanne Claude that drew millions to Central Park, and "Manifest Destiny," by Alexis Rockman, showing New York City underwater in the future as a result of climate change.
