The Secret Lives of Salamanders
SPEAKER: Jen Lamb, PhD., Instructor of Biology, Southeastern Louisiana University, Hammond, LA
Salamanders are beneath your feet as you walk in the woods, in the sand when you wade in a creek, and, sometimes, sliding through the ditch in your yard. In this talk, we'll dive into the diversity of salamanders in the Gulf Coastal Plain. We'll also explore how we're using a variety of sciences, including genetics, to understand how salamanders go about their lives and how we can best conserve them.
Included with museum admission. Free for Members.
