Blake, our Longleaf Stewardship Center Manager, encountered this juvenile #BoxTurtle and Common #SnappingTurtle crossing the road within a mile of each other. After photos, he moved them off the road in the direction they were headed, so they could continue on their adventures.
While surveying a stream for Wood Turtles last month, Kiley chanced on this #SpottedTurtle in the stream. He had seen this same #turtle last year in a shallow wetland nearby, but dry conditions this spring may have pushed this turtle to seek refuge in the stream. #Clemmysguttata
Houston spoke at the 2024 Association of Zoos and Aquariums #Herpetology Taxon Advisor Group's annual conference in Norfolk, VA, co-hosted by the Virginia Zoo. He presented on Spotted #Turtles and Reticulated Flatwoods #Salamanders , sharing our #research with a new audience.

While scoping out a new site to potentially do some turtle surveys, Kiley noticed something unusual about one of the Red-tailed Hawks circling above.

The Orianne Society burn team recently had the opportunity to reintroduce fire into a long unburned unit on Little St. Simon's Island. These types of units have heavy fuel loads, require special weather conditions and experienced fire managers. #prescribedfire #conservation
