Land of Lizards

Victor Bogosian, a PhD researcher from Southern Illinois University, and student conservation associates Katie Hietz and Jeffrey Ackley move slowly through the high grasses behind base housing using the beeping of their transponder to locate tagged Texas Horned Lizards. The pea-sized transmitters each tagged lizard wears help scientists learn about the animal listed as a state species of “special concern,” a protection researchers want to keep from moving to “threatened” or “endangered.” (Air Force photo/Margo Wright)
