🎼Our PBT Jamboree

This month we tackled the maintenance of our translocation site and captured pygmy bluetongues across all the lineages and generations that reside here (except a few stubborn individuals) 🌟

With a fleet of helpful volunteers the pygmy team were able to fix up the fencing that separates different lineages, do some much needed whipper snipping, identify active lizard burrows and catch as many lizards as possible 🦎

Each caught lizard had measurements taken for morphemetrics data and body condition before being promptly returned home 🏠

Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who helped out for the PBT Jamboree ⭐️ It was a lot of fun and incredibly productive!
