Amphibians of Arkansas

Event Description

Amphibians are a type of animal that fascinates those who have a casual encounter or study them long term. Amphibians live the majority of their lives in or near water so they can also be an indicator of water quality. This presentation usually focuses on frog species and habitats in AR but can also include other amphibians like salamanders, sirens, and other fully aquatic amphibians.
