Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Road hunting ban in Texas
SB 275 has been introduced in the Texas Senate to exempt reptiles, amphibians and insects from the road hunting ban. Hopefully all of us that enjoy herping in Texas can support SB275 and get this road hunting ban lifted.

I have to admit that I wouldn't mind road cruising for graybanded kings sometime before I die. Hopefully Connie and I will be able to do some travelling this upcoming year, and Texas is definitely on my list to spend some time in.

That's encouraging news. One of the most exciting moments of my "herp life" was pulling my first alterna off a cut in Loma Alta.

I have a similar memory in 1989 in Langtry.

just spent a summer in las cruces in 06 .. 35 minutes from el paso.. love to get out on the dirt roads till 1:00 in the morning.. and check out the desert especially after a rain and listen to the spade foots, watch the lightning , and enjoy the beauty of the desert at night . pullin on the side of a road cutting and checking out spiney swifts collecting a few legal specimans for reasearch and development for the scientific and herpitolocigal communities they should be more worried about the illigal border jumpers and drug smugglers and stop making excuses and scapegoats for what's really goin on..border patrol needs to step up.. the b.l.m. needs to step up not make stopping on the road illegal becausde it looks susspicious why any one wants to ugly it up with red tape... them people with there white collars and forked toungues they do nothing but abuse their authority and violate civil rights its all over ...unless we start to stand up for what we believe in if you believe in herpitology,herpitoculture , and the hystoric value of reptiles and amphibians that have been around here since the beginning of TIME ..
