i live in Sherman Illinois....its a few miles away from Springfield.....all i ever find is snakes and turtles, i have never found a lizard or salamander of any kind.......do have any advice?
dud u are awesom luv your vids mani wish i lived in ilinois there aparently is much more herps there then down here in sc the only snakes u see down here are coton mouths,yellow rat snakes,and ring necked snakes wich is a pretty boring variety
dude i wish i could help u out with ur herping i always liked amphibians eppecialy when u can grab them put them in a little water box and take em home unstead of spending like 69 dollars
Im no herpetologist, but am fascinated by reptiles/amphibians. Really enjoy videos you make. I used to live in Quincy IL, never realized how many species of reptiles IL has. I live in Colorado now, and other than garter/bull/rattlesnakes/racers, pretty boring variety. Look forward to more videos
I gotta warn you though, Texas is getting hardcore. I found loads of stuff last weekend (some lifers too). As it gets warmer Texas will really shine... Lets let CO choose this one as long as its not too far in the future. lol
i found 4 salamanders (3 redbacks and one baby slimy) in the end of january!!! but i live in maryland

Nah that is a location I have never been to before. The storms are rough on the Southern IL bluffs. It looks pretty dramatic sometimes.

I'm surprised you were able to get the watersnake to stay still that long. Usually they haul ass at first sight.
