The Western Long-toed Salamander (Ambystoma m. macrodactylum) ranges from central Oregon into Washington west of the Cascade range and north into SW British Columbia in Canada. This individual was found somewhere right in the middle.

TMNT! Cowabunga!
Hatchling eastern chicken turtles start at just about 1 in. in diameter. As adults, the males of these totally radical (but no longer teenage) turtles grow up to about 6.5 in., while the females may grow to around 10 in.

Why is it always "how's the fishing" and not "how's the fisheries biologist?"

[Dallas Zoo @DallasZoo]

We’ve got 18 reasons to celebrate! Our reptile team has just welcomed 18 Texas horned lizards, with more on the way! If all goes well, these little guys will be released into the wild this fall as part of a statewide effort to restore horned lizard populations.

It’s one of our favorite times of the year, Texas horned lizard-hatching season!

We’ve already had 135 hatchlings this year and are hopeful there will be even more!
