(University of Pittsburgh, Johnstown, PA Rocky Run Nature Area - 2003-30a) One of the interesting features of the the Indian Pipe is that the plant lacks chlorophyll and derives its nutrition from mycorhiza, tiny fungi that are associated with the roots of the plant.  Indian Pipe plants stand 4 to 10 inches tall.  In this photo, we can also see the small scale-like leaves on the stems.

Lamb Right Lamb Left Presented here are just a few of the countless components of God's creation.  Just as we cannot have human and animal life without water and plants, neither can we have lasting peace without love and compassion.  It is our hope and prayer that this series will motivate people to live and act in a cruelty-free manner; that we would no longer hurt or destroy each other, the animals or our environment.
