SUMMARY:Managing Our Underwater World in Tampa Bay
DESCRIPTION:Meet the Tampa Bay Aquatic Preserves program and learn about the coastal resources they protect in Tampa Bay. \nThe Tampa Bay Aquatic Preserves (TBAP)\, managed by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s Office of Resilience and Coastal Protection\, highlight the best of what our state has to offer: open water\, inlet bays\, tidally influenced creeks and rivers\, oyster reefs\, seagrass beds\, salt marshes and mangrove forests. These habitats are vital to Florida’s iconic wildlife such as manatees\, dolphins\, fishes\, oysters\, and an abundance of wading\, nesting and migratory birds. Although not widely known\, TBAP even has a variety of corals in its hard-bottom areas. Join the TBAP program at Weedon Island to learn how they are working to restore & protect the coastal resources in our own backyard. \nThis program will feature Dr. Randy Runnels of the Tampa Bay Aquatic Preserves Program. Dr. Runnels earned his PhD in Oceanography from Texas A&M University. His 30+ year career has taken him from the temperate Northern Gulf of Mexico to the Florida Keys. In recent years he has been invited to China and Vietnam as a coastal management adviser on a number of issues. He has managed Tampa Bay’s aquatic preserves for over two decades\, and continues to teach college courses in Biology\, Marine Science and Environmental Science. \nThis program is recommended for adults and youth ages 12+. Youth should be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the program. \n\n>>> RESERVE A SPOT

SUMMARY:Where Did the Snakes Go?
DESCRIPTION:Where Did the Snakes Go?\nThe Parasite Behind Pygmy Rattlesnake Declines \nLearn about new research from the University of Central Florida’s Biology Department! \nPrecipitous declines of Sistrurus miliarius are spatially and temporally consistent with the initial invasion of the lung parasite\, Raillietiella orientalis (RO). RO is suspected to have been introduced by the established Burmese pythons in South Florida and causes disease in snakes native to the southeastern United States. Eighteen species of native snakes are documented as definitive hosts in Florida but pathology and risk of disease development between species is understudied. During this program\, Jenna will introduce the invasive lung parasite\, uncover what species are at risk of infections in the southeastern US\, and why pygmy rattlesnakes are an exceptionally vulnerable host. \n>>> REGISTER HERE
