I should elaborate on my background here. I am currently living in NJ, am unemployed, and have a BS in Biology. I have been keeping amphibians (and reptiles from time to time) for many years; however, I have only been breeding them for the past 7 years or so. The past few years have really sparked my passion for darts. I worked for the Richard Stockton Animal Laboratory for 2 years as an undergrad. I maintained the dart collection there, which contained approximately 13 species and many tinctorius color morphotypes. I would like to say a big thanks and what's up to Robby, Rob O. and Joe Triv. Also, a huge thanks to Jeff Rosshirt and Sean Stewart for all of those wonderful donations.

I recently just left a seasonal position, but as a wildlife biologist for the state Endangered and Non-Game Species Program, I was able to study Southern Gray Tree Frogs (Hyla chrysoscelis). They are endangered in the state, but common throughout most of their distribution. I actually conducted a telemetry study with the adults from two survey sites in Cape May. If anyone is interested in the details please feel free to ask any questions and I will field them as best as possible.

Have fun,

Justin
