My two parenting wins for the weekend: this joy when finding an American toad and Alden calling a bison in a book a bison and not a buffalo.

Don is incredibly deserving of this award. It was really inspiring to see his acceptance talk. https://t.co/h4QZ4WwxWV

Gaboon vipers have the ability to control just how much venom is injected when attacking, and even whether or not to inject any at all. Because of this, a bite from a this snake can have results ranging from no effect at all to rapid death.

Help the hellbenders. @NCWildlife Commission asking the public: have you seen any hellbenders lately? https://t.co/yoCP8ZzOVO via @asheville #avlnews #avloutdoors

@AlongsideWild Is that a brag or an excuse?

[JJ Apodaca @tbconservation]

Had a great time in Oklahoma, identifying the most important areas for #amphibian and #reptile #Conservation for @PARCorg. Always awesome to see the passion folks have for protecting the herps in their state. Thanks to everyone who came to the meeting!

Today, @Janthino & I presented the latest on #Bsal research & policy to US agency leaders at the Fish & Wildlife Health Committee of the North American Wildlife & Natural Resources Conference.

Awareness is a step toward preparedness.

[JJ Apodaca @tbconservation]

Not meant to be a quote about #Conservation , but oh so relevant. Most of the biggest problems facing biodiversity fall under the category of no one having a clear authority or the resources to deal with them. Fragmentation for example. https://t.co/BpFb49arNF

[Ray Dalio @RayDalio]

As a principle, deadly problems that you don’t see or feel, especially those that are communal so that nobody is clearly given the authority and resources to deal with them well, are the ones that will kill you.

Great recognition for HerpMapper by PARC. https://t.co/EWvgnyPrnd

[JJ Apodaca @tbconservation]

Humans, you've only been around for a few hundred thousand years and you went and Cirri-ously screwed it all up. Lets give a voice to the lungless among us. We're here to stay! Well, unless climate change kills us first.
