Yeah, I realized that after the fact but got caught up with sick children. I'm located in DFW, south of Denton near the Texas Speedway, and everything has been exploding out here. Housing developments and businesses are cropping up so quickly the local fauna is pretty thrown for a loop. If I could convince my neighbors that they don't need to kill the Copperheads that keep ending up on their patios and driveways I'd sleep a lot better at night. I've gone so far as to offer to capture them at any hour of the day or night and take them further up the creek where they aren't as likely to come back just to slow the destruction but no one has taken me up on it yet so I'm not sure if they're finally finding food elsewhere or if people are just blowing me off. Either way I have a history of animal rehab and release (although with birds of prey more than herps) and am equally interested in finding out how best to go about doing rescue and education if there isn't anyone within a reasonable distance.
