Herpetological Conservation and Biology

Herpetological Conservation and Biology is the study and protection of reptiles and amphibians, such as snakes, turtles, frogs, and salamanders. It involves understanding their biology, behaviors, and habitats, as well as addressing threats like habitat loss, pollution, invasive species, and climate change. Conservation efforts aim to prevent declines and recover populations through habitat preservation, research, and public education. This field helps ensure these unique animals thrive in the wild for future generations, recognizing their important roles in ecosystems and their intrinsic value.
