Three kids attend a striped newt release in the Munson Sandhills, and host a video about their experience.

FWC and its partners work to protect the frosted flatwoods salamander, a fire dependent animal in serious decline.

We roam the Apalachicola National Forest around Sumatra, where we find rare carnivorous plants and a recently burned pitcher plant bog.

We explore what the striped newt has to tell us about drought and groundwater in Tallahassee, and meet some of the amazing animals found in its wetlands.

Adopt an Ephemeral Wetland is citizen science focused on amphibians. But participants will also learn about seasonality and the forest around wetlands.

Two releases of striped newts into ephemeral wetlands in the Apalachicola National Forest show how this is an amphibian forged by fire.

We travel to a place in the Apalachicola National Forest called Ant Heaven. Here, a novel research method sheds light on the underground lives of ants.

Two families visit dried out ephemeral wetlands in the Munson Sandhills. Even without water, they find gopher frogs and visit rare butterfly habitat.

We meet many of the dozens of butterfly species found in several habitats in Tallahassee, as citizen scientists conduct a yearly survey.

Deep in the Apalachicola National Forest, the Bradwell Bay Wilderness is the best remaining population of a salamander in decline.
