Hunting hatchlings
Stacey Sekscienski, curator of reptiles and fish with the Oklahoma City Zoo, uses a harmonic radar to search for Texas horned lizard hatchlings equipped with tiny electronic diodes last week in Tinker’s Urban Greenway. Ms. Sekscienski and other OKC Zoo volunteers help monitor and track the base’s Texas Horned Lizard population. The device uses harmonic radar to reflect a signal off the diode up to 2 meters. It is a Swedish technology used to locate avalanche victims. Adult lizards are tagged, or have microchips inserted in them much like pets can be tagged for identification purposes.
