I would like to add a page of the State reptiles (23) and amphibians (13) to my web site. If you have any of the official ones that you would like to donste, it would be great. You may have the frogs or the turtles. Thanks. ( photo / image / picture from Kildale's Garden ) moderator's note: added a more descriptive title to topic
No takers on reptiles etc. This is the page so far, pretty sparse at the moment,Reptiles. I can let you know what the other States reptiles are if you are interested in becoming famous.
Sorry I can't help on this one Kildale. The only reptile I can photograph is our pet Western Hognosed Python.
Thanks for the offer, but I'm no snake fan at any time, I'm not even allowed to say the s word in the house.
I had no clue that there was such a thing as the state reptile. Maybe no one else does either. Tell me what it is and if i can help I will. I live in Ohio. Well, I went and looked it up..... It's a SNAKE. sorry!!! no can do!
Thanks for trying. You can see all the other emblems in the Nature Inn, the link is below the message. This is the list of the reptiles that we require. Red bellied turtle AZ ridged nosed rattlesnake Desert tortoise 2 states American alligator 2 states Gopher tortoise Diamond terrapin Snapping turtle Eastern box turtle 2 states Black racer Loggerhead sea turtle Horned lizard Timber rattlesnake Horned toad (Lizard)
The Texas Horned Lizard Phrynosoma cornutum has become very rare and endangered. I remember seeing them once in a while when we visited by g-grandfather out in west Texas but they just aren't commonly seen today. You might contact Texas Parks and Wildlife http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/learning/te ... ed_lizard/ and ask permission to use their photo on your website. The Texas Toad Bufo speciosus is widely distributed around the state. But if no one here has a photo you might also contact Texas Parks and Wildlife about using theirs. Also, on that Reptile page you gave the link to, the word Official is misspelled.
