Amphibian Adventure: Dugger Mountain Vernal Pond


14 February, 2005 — A vernal pond is a special type of wetland that remains wet for only a portion of the year. A wide variety of animals like insects, frogs, crustaceans, and salamanders rely on these ponds as breeding grounds.

Pre-registration is required. Transportation will be provided from JSU Martin Hall for a limited number of early registrants.
