Penny at the dog park

After our herpetology lab meeting last week we decided to drop hundreds of bouncy balls from the top floor of our building, down six flights of stairs, and see how many could get down into the basement. Our lab is awesome.

The one ball that made it to the bottom!

A picture of me hiking and herping with some friends is on the UC Davis Evolution and Ecology major’s website! Check it out HERE

You can also see me on Dr. Brad Shaffer’s website! He is the professor I have been doing all my turtle research under. People in the lab and ME!
