🚨 #HerpTwitter help! 🚨

This mystery snake was donated to the @MTABiology herp collection but no information came along with it!

Can anyone ID this snake? Would love some help! Please RT.

Thank you to all that came out to our second ever Studio Nights on Friday! We had a great time meeting all you wonderful artists and getting to show off some of our favorite specimens. If you missed this month, we have one more coming up in April! More details later this week...

[Museum of Southwestern Biology @UNM_MSB]

Big news! MSB tweets are back! First order of business is bragging about our awesome undergrads that just returned from spring break Arizona Toad surveys with @JTGiermakowski in southern New Mexico. Plus a few lizards on the side... Great job Sophia and Ezra!

[MSB Division of Amphibians and Reptiles @MSBherps]

As promised, we have updates on our spring break adventures... but they're over on @UNM_MSB, where we're going to start doing most of our posting! Head over to see what we were up to in the Gila and follow to see more from all around the MSB!

[MSB Division of Amphibians and Reptiles @MSBherps]

MSB Herps is out in the field this week for spring break! Check back next week for updates on all the cool stuff we're up to!

[MSB Division of Amphibians and Reptiles @MSBherps]

Wow! Spots for our March MSB Studio Nights event filled up in about 2 hours; faster than we could share the poster! The good news is we still have a few spots on the waitlist...
