Visiting the mecca of snake watching Twice a year, spring and fall, numerous species of reptiles and amphibians migrate between the LaRuePine Hills’ towering limestone bluffs and the Big Muddy River’s swampy floodplain in southern Illinois.

Although it is one of the best places in the world to observe snakes throughout the year, spring and fall are the optimal times to see a greater number and variety. Among the many activities that snakes can be observed doing are sunning themselves on rocks, lying in grasses, sheltering under or near fallen tree limbs, or crossing the road.
In this engaging guide, author Joshua J. Vossler details what to expect and how to make the most of a visit to what is known around the world as Snake Road. Vossler catalogs twenty-three native snake species by both common and scientific names, lists identifying features, and estimates the probability of spotting them.

Author: by James R. Spotila

ISBN: 978-0801880070
Winner, Professional and Scholarly Publishing Awards in Biological Sciences Winner, National Outdoor Book Award, Nature and the Environment Outstanding Academic Title, Choice MagazineFor more than a hundred million years, sea turtles have been swimming in the world’s oceans. These magnificent, long-lived creatures spend their lives in the water, coming ashore to lay their eggs.
Upon hatching, the baby turtles leave the nest and enter a dangerous world of storms and predators. The females will return to the same beach to lay their own eggs when they reach maturity a decade later. Today, there are seven species of sea turtle: the grasseating green turtle; the sea spongeeating hawksbill; the olive ridley; the Kemp’s ridley, which is the smallest species; the loggerhead; the flatback of Australia; and the giant leatherback.
Having escaped the mass extinction that wiped out the dinosaurs, these ancient reptiles today face new dangers that threaten their survival: pollution, hunting, and the destruction of their nesting grounds. Will this century be the last to witness their majesty?
