Feedback - Many of Minnesota's
herps are declining, threatened or endangered - primarily due
to habitat destruction! We would be very interested to hear from
you if you have information regarding Minnesota's less common
species. Detailed descriptions and locations are appreciated!
For help describing the species you've seen, check out this page
of helpful hints.
