Hey everyone!
We have come up with some winter events with the hope to see some really cool animals! The dates are yet to be confirmed but you can check out the selection of events and the month we hope to hold them on our website uqherpsociety.weebly.com/eve…
Not herp related, but as we transition into an ecological society, I thought many of you would be interested in the sea monters exhibition on at the QLD museum!
Did you know Archelons are the biggest turtles to ever live? The largest found was a whopping 4.6 metres head to tail. That's taller than two humans standing on shoulders! 😮 Dive into Sea Monsters: bit.ly/3pwbFYn #SeaMonstersQM #qldmuseum

Citizen science is a good way to engage people in the natural world and can shed light on fundamental conservation issues.
Citizen science is fundamentally shifting the future of #biodiversity research.
This recent paper, led by @callaghanct, sheds light on three frontiers of citizen science research. #citscioz #citizenscience

Pretty cool site to keep track of the species you have found and educate other people around the world on where to find these species!

I’m getting ready for #FrogIDWeek, which starts this Friday!!! Are you? Tip: find a great spot now (like this wetland full of noisy #frogs) and record every night of FrogID Week! @FrogIDAus @austmus 🐸🐸🐸
One of our lovely members, Hayley Lye, has drawn some incredible images of herps! She would love to do some more drawings based of photos people have taken from our trips. If you are interested, let us know!
Check out some of Henri Decoeur's photos of the different frog species we found on our Karawatha night walk last Sunday!
