These seasonally wet ponds, ditches or fields are home to salamanders, frogs, fairy shrimp and insects. In early spring (Feb-Mar) they can teem with masses of salamanders and frogs that use them for breeding. The salamander species that use these pools live underground the rest of the year and are rarely encountered. The talk will include live vernal pool creatures for people to see! This free event is hosted by the Cincinnati Museum Center’s Edge of Appalachia Preserve System.
