While Dr. E.O. Wilson is best known as a myrmecologist, here is proof he was also a herpetologist back in the day while he was a @UofAlabama student. #RollTide

Such an attractive turtle! I am lucky to have been able to work with this species and help generate additional information on their distribution in Texas. #herpetology
Dreaming of summer? Close your eyes and channel the warm vibes of this Rio Grande cooter soaking up the West TX sun. Large groups of freshwater turtles like these can often be found sunbathing, or “basking” to help control their internal body temperature.

@Daniel_F_Hughes Also, you should pic up Fogell’s NE guide and older versions on MN field guide, especially Breckenridge. Lots of good information in it.
We LOVE the educational video made by Naturalist Angelina Stancampiano with @OklahomaParks for our amphibian disease citizen science program! https://t.co/jj3QtYXMbS
