PA Timber Rattlesnakes on a lovely day

Nothing like grocery shopping while smelling of rattlesnake musk...

@rattlesnakeguy Can help but wonder, would the poison affect the rattlesnake? If it consumed the rodent that consumed the poison - does that affect the snake?...

Yesterday, Marissa was called to catch this Western Diamondback Rattlesnake in a Scottsdale yard. These poison bait stations, in addition to not meaningfully helping the rodent situation, can attract rattlesnakes.

@snakeymama This sounds amazing...

Doing an online whiskey tasting right now = winning

@kirstyjean One time the other reviewer contacted me and asked if I was the other reviewer. I suppose I’m fairly predictable... ... pretty sure you remember doing this 😉

Who doesn’t love baby #rattlesnakes?! Did you know they are really good at following mom’s scent? But did you know substrate affects this ability! #NeonateRattlesnakes #scentTrailing #DangerNoodle

The Biology Department at the University of Scranton is looking to hire a FT/TT Assistant Professor in Molecular Biology - Pass it on! universityofscrantonjobs.com/postings/4992 #BiologyJobs #TenureTrackJob #AssistantProfessorJob #ProfessorJob

@wild_ecology Teaching/mentoring

Assistant Prof applications at smaller teaching focused institutions: Research/grants first on the CV or teaching/mentoring first? I've heard mixed opinions.

@HerpJCAM @snakeymama @MaxRLambert @TurtleSurvival Obviously @HerpJCAM hasn’t been following much in the herp world these days - we are weeding trash out of our societies (regardless of how cool the talks may be). If you want to keep friends with this type, then feel free to publish your stories in “Copeia” after this year.

Hey @TurtleSurvival - you need to remove Dick Vogt's talk from the #TSA2020 virtual conference Vogt has repeatedly harassed & assaulted women, particularly women of color He's done having a platform If you don't remove Vogt from the lineup, consider my talk withdrawn

Great article on some of our cool research conducted with @TracyLangkilde @MarkWilliamHerr and @EvolutionAvery on rattlesnake gestation sites. Thanks for the great write up @scissorsfiend news.psu.edu/story/623867/2…

@thekriswild On the edge. But the one moved back in to the burn. I found him next to a stream. Coincidence or kick ass save me from fire behavior? I don’t know. Have fun with the paper.

@ChrisHowey81 Very cool, were the ones that you found on the edge of the burn or were they found afterwards? On another note I just got my hands on your recent paper, looking forward to diving into it.

Prescribed fire at rattlesnake study site. Glad we got this in this year.

@thekriswild I did not. But we found two while doing the burn. Both are doing good. One is getting a transmitter and I’ll continue to see how it interacts with the burn

@ChrisHowey81 So do you have any tagged?

Check out our recent paper in #JournalofHerpetology that I wrote with @MarkWilliamHerr , @EvolutionAvery , & @TracyLangkilde regarding trade-offs b/w risk of predation and thermal quality at #TimberRattlesnake gestation sites. bioone.org/journals/Journ…

@vfarallo You mean, see you in a couple months from an appropriate distance.... haha... not realy funny... sigh

Despite the challenges we currently face, the #UniversityofScranton Biology Department is looking forward to these awesome new colleagues joining us in the Fall! sites.scranton.edu/biology/2020/0…
