Highlights included sightings of western screech owls, Dixie Valley toads, pinyon jays, and bats.🌊 Educational highlights of the trip covered ancient Lake Lahontan's history, human and endemic species interactions at Sand Mountain, the endangered Dixie Valley toad, marine reptile fossils at Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park, and the vital importance of water at Stillwater National Wildlife Refuge.🦎 This hands-on experience is open to any student who has completed Organismal Biology (BIOL191A, 191L) and is offered every spring.#TMCCPride #TMCCPaysOff #WildlifeTech #FieldExperience #GreatBasin
