Great news! I've been talking to professors in the Biology department and the US Forest Service biologist about current research on the Louisiana Pine Snake (arguably the rarest snake in North America) and USFS is letting me tag along for live trappings to assist in looking for a Louisiana Pine Snake! So far they've only found a few, and they were recaptures, maybe we'll get some though if anything they said we'd get some snakes so I'm stoked!
