124 | Long-term Massasauga Studies in Illinois

In this episode of Snake Talk, Dr. Jenkins sits down with Dr.
Michael Dreslik from the Illinois Natural History Survey. With a
career dedicated to wildlife research in Illinois, Mike has led
several long-term studies, including one focused on the
Massasauga (Sistrurus catenatus), one of the most
threatened rattlesnake species in the state. Together, they
explore the ecology of these fascinating snakes, ongoing
conservation efforts, and the challenges they face for
survival.
