Tidestrom's Lupine (IMAGE) Washington University in St. Louis Caption The endangered Tidestrom’s lupine (Lupinus tidestromii) lives life on the lowdown producing stalks of fruits, like those in the foreground that lie on the sand. A mouse looking for a meal just snips off the stalk at its base and drags the entire cluster of fruits to its nest.
