Field biology back to measure thermoregulation of gopher tortoises

The Honors college Field biology class (taught by Professor James Wetterer) was back in the Abacoa Greenway with Dr. Wetterer and Dr. Jon Moore, conducting research on a student thesis project. The class took body temperatures of the tortoises and the temperature of the air and burrows.

Here are a few images of students in the "Turtle soup(ers) [or supers] group"  named by the team leader of the group.
