Frogs and their Habitats in Chatham County
The Chatham Conservation Partnership (CCP) will be meeting this Thursday, April 21, 2016, 9:00am am-12 noon, in Pittsboro to celebrate and learn more about frogs and their important habitats in Chatham County.
They will meet in the Chatham County: Cooperative Extension Service Building (located at 45 South St, Pittsboro) for a presentation by Jeff Beane, Herpetologist with the NC Museum of Natural Sciences. Jeff will provide information about the diversity of frogs in Chatham County, including information on their biology, natural history, life cycle, and the importance of frog habitats and way to help protect their habitats.
After the meeting, Jeff Beane and Jeff Hall, a biologist with the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission, will lead a field trip to the Triangle Land Conservancy’s White Pines Preserve located west of downtown Pittsboro.
