Great Herpetology Resource for South Carolina and North Carolina

Found a great website today.

The Carolina Herp Atlas whose primary objective as stated on their site is “… Is to provide detailed data on the distribution of reptiles and amphibians of North and South Carolina.”

It’s aweseom in that you can upload pictures and data on herps you’ve found in your area to the site. We plan on uploading a bunch of ours soon… the only problem is you have to enter the scientific name of the animal in order to upload the picture… It would be great if you could upload all the other data and allow the community to help identify which reptile or amphibian it is. But it’s a great site and I’m glad that they are collecting this data.

Rango Official Preview

Rango is an upcoming film starring Johhny Depp as a pet lizard that is accidentally released into the desert. The animation looks incredible- (it was done by ILM) Looks like there will be lots of other reptiles and creatures in the film. It opens in March 2011.
