Big thanks to @meaghan_regina for finding this massive black-bellied salamander. This is a PR for both size and length.

Excited about the latest lab paper published with @wildlifesociety. A collaborative effort between @Gouldpr0 , @meaghan_regina , and @Wilk_Sci; supported by @HighlandsBIO and @OSUEnvironment. Interested in #salamanders and/or #wildfire? Check it out!

Just published my first primary author publication of my graduate work. Here's too a productive, transformative 2021! Learn more about stream salamanders here: https://t.co/Kvm3RgDu5n

To put into context just how large the black-bellied salamander can be relative to other desmogs, the seal and ocoee salamanders here are full adults. In fact, this is one of the larger seals I measured.

I found this cool caterpillar last night. I believe it is an Eastern Tiger Swallowtail caterpillar. They have distinct false eyes, making it seem like their head is larger than it is.

While much of the midwest has been experiencing substantial rain, our part of western North Carolina has not recieved significant rain for over 2 weeks. The effects of drought are increasingly noticeable along forestry road edges, where dust covers all o… https://t.co/yVQyraIiFn

Here are a handful of the species observed during the landscape ecology and amphibian conservation class over the past two weeks. I'm glad to have been able to share some of the great biodiversity of the southern appalachians! https://t.co/AEIU9RMSl3

Great start to the 2019 Landscape Ecology and Conservation of Amphibians Class.
The water snake featured may not be an amphibian; however, like us, it was hunting for them. https://t.co/GTqTXNmuvO
