105 | From Field Herping South Texas to Zoo Based Conservation

Dr. Jenkins sits down with Clint Guadiana, Curator of Reptiles
and Amphibians at Gladys Porter Zoo and one of the field herping
experts for extreme south Texas, a region known for its unique
biodiversity and a popular destination for field herpers. They
discuss field herping in the region, the "Big 5" species for
which the region is famous, the tin stacking technique that Clint
developed (which significantly increases the number of snakes he
finds) and the Gladys Porter Zoo, including its reptile and
amphibian collection and the conservation work it focuses on.
