Tried to visit the Liberty Bell, Independence Hall, and Constitution Center while passing through Philly on the way home from the Diamondback Terrapin Working Group meeting, but with the NPS closed all I managed was a photo through the window. What a perfect analogy…😞

I’m so honored and proud that my lab @themccrackenlab.bsky.social at TAMU-CC is leading a research-driven effort to help return waif Texas tortoises to the wild. This work is built on years of collaboration studying disease ecology, population genomics, and distribution patterns.
