As
a part of the Furman Forest initiative, Furman University faculty and
students are conducting surveys of various taxonomic groups. This reptile
survey was begun in Summer 2008 by Ben Delancey (Biology Major) and
Dr. Wade Worthen. Tim Ward of North Greenville University continued
the work in Summer 2009. Through this research, we hope to catalog the
species that are present and track changes in populations of special
concern. |
