Chatham Conservation Partnership (CCP) conducted a webinar on Snakes of the North Carolina Piedmont on July 20, 2023, and we had a great turnout of about 140 folks. Now everyone can view the recording! The two presenters, Jeff Beane and Jeff Hall, did an amazing job regaling us with their many decades of experience and knowledge about the snakes of the North Carolina piedmont.
