Yeah I found out they weren't endangered. One of my field guides said they were, obviously a myth of some sort. Thanks for the help though.

Yeah my box is full again. You can use my picture of the baby eastern kingsnake I have on here. While I have seen a few more the pictures are bad because of a concrete bridge they sit under.

I was dropping off my car today at cherry hill triplex and there was a huge luna moth probably on its death bed on a cars spare tire. I thought it was fake at first and closer inspection confirmed that it was indeed a luna moth. I have a book that says they are endangered is this true? Are...

If you look closely it is a vulture with its back to the car, with it wings spread over something. Black vultures which are slightly smaller, but still big are occasional winter residents in nj. Also turkey vultures when young still have black heads, they are huge birds. Also they are...

Bobbleton staged her on some moss, she was found under a pile of shingles. They are a very cool looking amphibian.

Both were lifers for me and Bob H. but I must admit this was the first time I've ever looked for them. Marbleds may be one of the coolest looking amphibians I've seen.

Here are some pics from burlington county and atlantic from 5/29 Marble salamander Red salamander Just barely a quarter size painted turtle Adult female digging her nest to lay eggs,

Good call with back of the knee that is absolutely horrendous. Ankles are bad too especially were you socks come up and irritate it all day.

A very uplifting post guys, from one snake to three is very nice sign to see. Hopefully one day I will stumble upon something like that in the pines.

If you have the video of it I'd love to see it. Many snakes rattle there tell when provoked. Black ratsnakes can sound just like rattlers. What did it look like, and yes rattlesnake are in the pines, just rare.

Thankfully I've never seen one in person, if you google turtle traps you will see some pictures. I was notified by a fellow herper, and have since been making it a personal mission of mine to find the culprits. But since in all my time in the woods I've seen one game warden in two years, I'm...

Guys, a heads-up to all members, I've recently caught wind of alot of poaching activity going on around cranberry bogs in our pine barrens, primarily of spotted turtles. If anyone sees large turtle traps in the pines let me know, they look like crab traps for the most part. I've been in touch...

As far as the state not allowing people to pick things up I can understand their viewpoint. I have seen people trying to catch frogs, snakes, and lizards like they were trying to wrangle a crocodile. To me there has to kind of be a reason for picking it up, just to say you wrangled one is kind...

Took me a couple times to realize it was a bird with its wings open. Does look like a vulture, was there any dead animals on the trail?

I agree what giving out locations is def. wrong. Taking pictures has nothing to do with giving info to poachers. The state doesn't want people picking animals up because of potential problems associated with handling animals. Such as getting bit, hurting or stressing an animal by improperly...

Swiit I mean I will trade him the experience of finding a kingsnake for finding a hognose. I've never found a hognose, but I have found a few kingsnakes, njsnakeman is the opposite having never found a king but several hogs. I never have collected a thing in my life nor agree with it, I'm 100%...

I responded to Jason in a PM. Jeff, for not being a herper you said it about as good as you can. Chris

Here are some pine barrens reptiles and some reptiles found about a mile from my house, Baby Eastern kingsnake in burlington county, Not pine barrens but some nice finds in a very developed area, Two-Lined salamander, Baby eastern box, Some adult eastern boxies, This one had a bad ear...

Looks like the pine barrens herping gods were on your side. I will trade you a kingsnake find for a hognose if you want. Hoggies have eluded me for a while now.
