New Pub on Frogs from canyon streams in AZ! Perennial streams are rare and support habitat for anuran breeding. @WileyGlobal #FreshwaterBiology DOI: 10.1111/fwb.14334

Wow! That was amazing! ... I don't think the chorus frogs paused calling but the turkey vultures roosted. In Ohio, path of totality.

Paper alter in @ESAEcology Cue the chorus - Canyon Treefrogs call on the falling limb of spring floods. Cool connection between natural flow regimes and dry land species! #amphibians #herpetology #wilderness #acousticecology doi-org.ezproxy1.lib.asu.edu/10.1002/ecy.42…

@NWSPhoenix We have ice and freezing temps in Mesa

Temperatures have fallen into the low 30s across a large portion of the Phoenix Metro area with many locations now below freezing. Make sure to dress warm on your way out the door this morning! #azwx

Fresh paper re snake perceptions/attitudes & human behaviour toward snakes (in AZ, USA) by the impressive @ProfKLLarson, lovely @BatemanHL, cool @annikaenloe, & committed @rattlesnakeguy. "experiences w/ snakes increased positive attitudes toward them." tinyurl.com/2tpv7j5v

New Paper by @ProfKLLarson and our team!

Graduate is answering the calls of frogs and toads! 🐸 So proud of @CISAASU MS graduate - Maggie Huck! #HERpetology news.asu.edu/20231204-gradu…

Not all classrooms have four walls. @BatemanHL offers hands-on learning opportunities in her courses that help prepare students for careers in wildlife conservation. Catch a glimpse of the course Applied Herpetology #frogs #amphibians #FieldTrip #AppliedLearning #herpetology

@MaxRLambert @UrbanSchell Super exciting!!! And a 🐍 on the cover too! 💚

Absolutely ecstatic to receive the first printed versions of our book @UrbanSchell, amazing colleagues, & I assembled this book to showcase the "why" and "how" of equitably/justly conserving biodiversity in our cities and suburbs DM me for a discount! global.oup.com/academic/produ…

Important predictors of habitat suitability were bioclimatic variables: precipitation, solar radiation, temperature - but these relationships are not linear. Published in @JBiogeography

2) Arizona toad could loose 37%-48% of its range under various climate change scenarios #herpetology #climate #ecology

New paper alter! Using over 3,000 records of Arizona Toad across in the US, we (lead by FabioAlbuquerque with @mjryan42frogs and @brettley26) found that 1) historical records can be used to predict current range and ... doi.org/10.1111/jbi.14…

Look at this 57 g Desert Spiny lizard #lizardcatcher #Sceloporus

It's baby lizard season! @CISAASU students in applied herpetology help check long-term arrays in Mesa.

@OrnCon_Americas - great meeting!

Ready for classes to start next week? Oh! ... still thinking of my great trip to southern Brazil birding and presenting at the II Ornithological Congress of Americas. Enjoy these Southern Screamers
