#MeetTheGradStudents 💥Ethan Shealy💥
I grew up in the small beach town of Pawleys Island, South Carolina. I got my B.S. in Biological Sciences from the University of South Carolina Honors College in Columbia, SC. I’m currently pursuing my PhD under Ben Parrott here at SREL.
It’s #WorldTurtleDay ! May and June are the popular months for turtle road-crossings. Why do they cross the road? They often have a specific destination in mind, needing to locate a water source or nesting area. It's crucial to help them cross in the direction they are headed
Amphiumids (Amphiuma means) are commonly known as 'congo eels,' which isnt really a proper nickname for this amphibian. Even though the Amphiumids look similar to an eel, the obvious difference is their two pairs of legs.

🕷️Wolf spiders (Lycosidae spp) are the sprinters of the spider world. Most species in this family do not spin webs. Instead, they stalk and pounce on their prey just like the wolves that inspired their name.
