Online Field Herpetology Tools

I added some new links to the site (permanently added in the links section, obviously). These are websites that I use for my trips. They’re very useful for anyone looking to find animals out there, and often make the difference between a successful and skunk herping trip.

Weather: Wunderground.com

Moon Phase: U.S. Navy Astronomical Applications

AZ County Map: map_arizona_county

Online Spreadsheets: Google Docs

AZPARC Field Guide: reptilesofaz.com

Satellite Map: Google Earth

First and foremost, and not included on this list, is simply Google.com. The above links are useless without knowledge of the natural history, habits, and lifestyles of the animals you’re looking for.
