Have you heard of Simona Kossak?
She was a scientist, ecologist, and activist who fought to protect Europe’s oldest forest.
She was also a fascinating person.
The locals called her a witch (an experienced Nya from Witterkin knows well) because she chatted with animals and owned a terrorist crow who stole gold and attacked bicycle riders.
She spent more than 30 years in a wooden hut in the Białowieża Forest (Poland) without electricity or access to running water.
A lynx slept in her bed, and a tame boar lived with her under the same roof.
Simona Kossak was born on this day in 1943.
