Wow! That was amazing! ... I don't think the chorus frogs paused calling but the turkey vultures roosted. In Ohio, path of totality.

New paper from
@BatemanHL, @annikaenloe, and @rattlesnakeguy

@MaxRLambert @UrbanSchell Super exciting!!! And a 🐍 on the cover too! 💚

New paper alter! Using over 3,000 records of Arizona Toad across in the US, we (lead by FabioAlbuquerque with @mjryan42frogs and @brettley26) found that 1) historical records can be used to predict current range and ...
