SUMMARY:Geology & Herpetology - The Bridging of Two Sciences
DESCRIPTION:What do geology and herpetology have in common? Join us as we discover the geology and herpetology of the Chicago Region. This workshop will emphasize how geological forces have shaped the ecology of local reptiles and amphibians. Explore the connection between how the shape of the land effects the different species of reptiles and amphibians that live in the Chicago area. The focus will be on current species and include how we can follow changes in species through fossil remains. Up to 1.5 miles of easy to strenuous hiking is involved. Supplemental classroom resources will be provided. Professional Development Hours are available. Sponsored by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources\, this workshop is part of the ENTICE (Environment and Nature Training Institute for Conservation Education) program.
