In this episode we are joined by Dr. Beaupre from the University of Arkansas. Dr. Beaupre is a physiological ecologist who has spent his career studying Timber Rattlesnakes. We start the episode by talking about his path to becoming one of the world’s leading experts on Timber Rattlesnakes. We discuss all aspects of Timber Rattlesnake biology including topics such as their physiology, the function of the loreal pits, and how our knowledge of Timber Rattlesnake physiology and ecology can inform conservation.
