Tulare Lake, once thought gone for good, made a jaw-dropping return last year—flooding over 100,000 acres of farmland in California’s San Joaquin Valley after epic winter storms. Locals saw fields turn to water overnight, while wildlife flocked back and the Tachi Yokut Tribe welcomed the return of Pa’ashi. Now, as the lake shrinks again, a big debate is brewing: Should we let nature reclaim this space, or keep fighting to farm it? Tribal leaders and environmentalists are even pitching a permanent wetland. What do you think—restore the lake or stick with agriculture? #Science #TulareLake #California
