I’d like to be added to this pack! I’m interested in herpetology, fungal pathogens, spatial ecology, conservation, and behavior!

This Juneteenth, I’m asking you to support two initiatives.

1) The Expansion of #FindThatLizard. I want to travel to get more photos of more species of lizards.

2) #FindThatLizard scholarship for girls, women, and gender non-conforming people interested in herpetology.

A juvenile Eyelash Viper (Bothriechis schlegelii) of the yellow "oropel" morphotype spotted on a night hike in Alajuela Province, Costa Rica. These small, arboreal and mild-tempered snakes are incredibly variable in color and pattern and are a joy to photograph. #snakes #herpetology #wildlife

What a cool paper! 🀩 Using @inaturalist.bsky.social observations, Mayer et al. found that there are more melanistic snakes in colder regions than in warmer ones AND that melanistic snakes are more abundant with ⬆️ avian predator density 🐍🐦 Have look at it here: doi.org/10.1111/jbi....
