This guy sucks. Also just amazing to see a politician argue that ESA protections explicitly designed to prevent species extinctions should be stripped because… *check notes* he hopes the species gets wiped out. 🥴
Check out this interactive "Herptile Myths" map that my student Rachel made, showing myths and legends based on amphibians and reptiles from around the world! https://t.co/wlWTNgBDQo

Teaching students to interpret data and write their first scientific paper can be hard!
Our new publication provides all the materials you need to teach these skills in graduate or upper-level undergraduate courses. 1/

A bevy of beautiful Black Country badgers! Just look at this amazing family of FIFTEEN badgers which has been visiting the garden of local resident, Donna! What an incredible privilege to share space with these stunning, shy creatures. Badgers are brilliant!
Park Naturalists are often asked to identify wildlife in visitor photos. This photo of a fawn in Bon Echo had us stumped. It turns out the fawn was leucistic, it lacked pigment over all or part of the body. A recessive gene produces this trait.
We are looking for a motivated undergraduate student that is interested in conducting research and outreach activities that are associated with an amphibian project in Panama!!🐸 #REU Please retweet and share with potential applicants!!
Oh honey….
You delayed childcare as best you could
You cut money to schools
You’re killing health care
You attacked nurses and teachers
You fight sick leave
I do not accept your definition of ‘potential’ when you actively oppress

Today is #WorldWetlandsDay, which is a great chance to reflect on the importance of one of Florida’s most iconic and important natural features: wetlands, a section of the earth’s surface that are regularly or periodically covered by shallow water.
Another field assistant alert! This time to help with our behavioural and demographic study of #CanadaJays in beautiful Mt. Washington, Vancouver Island, BC. For Mar - June this year! Bonus if you know how to x-country ski. @perisoreus1@Reynolds_JohnD
Slide into the weekend like this Northern water snake (Nerodia sipedon) and bask on like these painted turtles (Chrysemys picta)!
