We couldn't let #nationalpuppyday go by without a shoutout to this amazing pup, Newt! This fox red Labrador retriever used his incredible snout last summer to help us check on some of our local turtle populations of conservation concern. This project collected invaluable data about our local turtle friends, such as movements and habitat use.

And special shoutout to Newt's mom, Dr. Kris Hoffman for letting us work with him!

Can frogs breathe underwater?

Frogs have a moist and permeable skin layer covered with mucous glands; this allows them to breathe through their skin in addition to their lungs. Their unique skin allows them to breathe underwater, so long as there is enough oxygen!

Don't worry, be hoppy 🐸 it's World Frog Day! #DYK There are over 7,000 frog species, and every single one of them is unique and wonderful in its own way.

What’s the difference between frogs and toads? There isn’t a difference, the word “frog” includes both frogs and toads.

🍀Happy St. Patrick's Day🍀 Wearing green attire comes naturally for Oskar the prehensile-tailed skink. Unlike some other lizards, their tail cannot regenerate, but it is used to help grip branches and maintain balance

Wishing you a happy and safe #StPatricksDay!

We interrupt your daily scroll for an extra dose of sweetness ❤️ Little Paia the tree kangaroo continues to grow! She is so curious about the world around her and loves exploring her habitat and trying new foods, like leafy greens.
