northern diamondback terrapin :: Article Creator SAVING DIAMONDBACK TERRAPINS Diamondback terrapins are the wild jewels of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. With diamond-patterned shells and speckled skin, these stunning turtles are a keystone species in the salt marshes and mangroves where they live. They help keep these ecosystems healthy by eating marsh snails, which in high numbers can harm marsh grasses. BACKGROUND Terrapins struggle against myriad threats, from coastal development destroying their habitat to sea-level rise, which will transform coastal landscapes in the coming decades, wiping out key terrapin nesting sites. Poachers and commercial traders target these turtles for trade as pets — and for their meat. But one of the greatest threats of all is needless drownings in blue crab traps. Lured in by bait, terrapins can't escape to the surface to breathe. Just one lost or abandoned trap can kill dozens of terrapins over time...

aurora house snake :: Article Creator Unfortunate Snake Causes Power Outage For 10,000 Homes "Rest in peace, snake." RIP How many snakes does it take to slither into a substation and short the circuits? Nearly 10,000 households in Japan found out the answer on Wednesday when a single snake found its way into the Tohoku Electric Power station and caused an outage that lasted an hour.

The Adair family said they have had Jack since he was a baby and they have made improvements to his habitat over the years, but they wanted to get him inside as temperatures dipped below freezing. "We made his shelter more winter-proof this time but just with it being so much colder than it usually is we wanted to move him inside," Laura Adair said. With the help of a recycling bin, firefighters were able to load Jack up from his backyard pen and get him inside. Adai...

It is republished here with permission. "This is ground zero," Mike Steiger, a fisheries biologist with Delaware's Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, said one morning last month.  Steiger was standing on a wooden walkway in the Russell Peterson Wildlife Refuge, looking over the steel-gray Christina River, a narrow tributary that twists through Wilmington, Del., and along I-95, eventually spilling into the Delaware River.  "This is the first place we found them." That first find was a decade ago.  In 2013, a recreational fisherman hooked an unfamiliar, 25-inch brute of a fish while casting into the Christina from a boat ramp in the town of Newport, about two miles from where Steiger now stood.  The fisherman knew he...
