PA Timber Rattlesnakes on a lovely day

Nothing like grocery shopping while smelling of rattlesnake musk...

@rattlesnakeguy Can help but wonder, would the poison affect the rattlesnake? If it consumed the rodent that consumed the poison - does that affect the snake?...

[Chris Howey @ChrisHowey81]

@snakeymama This sounds amazing...

@kirstyjean One time the other reviewer contacted me and asked if I was the other reviewer. I suppose I’m fairly predictable... ... pretty sure you remember doing this 😉

Who doesn’t love baby #rattlesnakes?! Did you know they are really good at following mom’s scent? But did you know substrate affects this ability! #NeonateRattlesnakes #scentTrailing #DangerNoodle

@HerpJCAM @snakeymama @MaxRLambert @TurtleSurvival Obviously @HerpJCAM hasn’t been following much in the herp world these days - we are weeding trash out of our societies (regardless of how cool the talks may be). If you want to keep friends with this type, then feel free to publish your stories in “Copeia” after this year.

[Chris Howey @ChrisHowey81]

Great article on some of our cool research conducted with @TracyLangkilde @MarkWilliamHerr and @EvolutionAvery on rattlesnake gestation sites. Thanks for the great write up @scissorsfiend https://t.co/etliNP9r5F

[Chris Howey @ChrisHowey81]

@thekriswild On the edge. But the one moved back in to the burn. I found him next to a stream. Coincidence or kick ass save me from fire behavior? I don’t know. Have fun with the paper.

[Chris Howey @ChrisHowey81]

Prescribed fire at rattlesnake study site. Glad we got this in this year.

[Chris Howey @ChrisHowey81]

@thekriswild I did not. But we found two while doing the burn. Both are doing good. One is getting a transmitter and I’ll continue to see how it interacts with the burn

[Chris Howey @ChrisHowey81]

Check out our recent paper in #JournalofHerpetology that I wrote with @MarkWilliamHerr , @EvolutionAvery , & @TracyLangkilde regarding trade-offs b/w risk of predation and thermal quality at #TimberRattlesnake gestation sites.
