SEB Tissue Voucher Bootcamp 4 - May 2024 Crystal River, Florida

Reliable responders met on the Gulf coast of central Florida.   They learned how to take tissue and preserve dead on road (DOR) specimens for deposition in publicly held museum collections. They volunteered their time surveying for reptiles and amphibians for FNAI and FWC, learning how drift / camera arrays work, and got the opportunity to scope tortoise burrows.    New faces, a last minute change of accomodation and some great snakes made this a memorable trip!
