Jessica Sandoval has been on staff with The Longle Jessica Sandoval has been on staff with The Longleaf Alliance since 2018!!! Jessica begins a new journey in a few short weeks as she pursues a M.S. in Biology at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville with a focus on aquatic ecology. We are happy to celebrate Jessica’s numerous contributions by sharing her story for our #PeopleOfLongleaf series! ❓ WHAT DO YOU WITH THE LONGLEAF ALLIANCE? 💬 As a member of the AMBBIS Team (short for Ambystoma bishopi aka the reticulated flatwoods salamander) my work focuses on head-starting flatwoods salamanders, monitoring our populations, and restoring critical #wetland habitat! ❓ WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE DAY ON THE JOB? 💬 The day we released our first head-started salamander metamorph - it was an exciting moment for us after spending months raising larvae in cattle tanks with the hopes of bolstering the populations on our work site. A note-worthy runner-up is any day we had the opportunity to introduce fire to wetlands that our teams worked tirelessly to restore. It is incredibly satisfying to see these sites go up in flames and to see the drastic improvements to the habitat. ❓ WHAT’S SOMETHING MOST PEOPLE DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOU? 💬 I’m a #firstgeneration student and didn’t discover my passion for amphibians and reptiles until after college and a few seasonal jobs. In fact, it wasn’t until I joined a research and mentoring program during my undergraduate degree that I realized it was even possible to have a job like this! But when I started working with The Alliance to restore imperiled amphibian habitat, I knew I wanted to continue working with herpetofauna. So, for anyone else in a similar position, it’s never too late to discover your passions! ❓ WHAT DO YOU WISH PEOPLE UNDERSTOOD ABOUT LONGLEAF? 💬 There is so much more to the #longleafpine ecosystem than just the tree (albeit an excellent tree). There are so many species that rely on these habitats to thrive. I consider myself exceptionally lucky to work in the #longleaf range and I learn new things about the species within these ecosystems every day! Thank you, Jessica, for your 3+ years with TLA! *All animals handled under proper permits. #WomenOfLongleaf
If you are interested in requesting financial assi If you are interested in requesting financial assistance for #longleafpine seedlings for the 2021-2022 planting season, there is still time to submit your request to The Longleaf Alliance! The deadline is July 31st! Submission details and FAQs can be found on our website > longleafalliance.org/longleaf-planting-funds Note - We are gathering information about planting plans and seedling needs. Most funds are available to cover the cost of trees only. 📷 The Longleaf Alliance works with multiple partners to provide #longleaf seedling funds to landowners. In 2020, The Longleaf Alliance, planted 3.2 million longleaf pine seedlings on private and public lands in collaboration with restoration partners!

The Longleaf Alliance is seeking a Team Member for The Longleaf Alliance is seeking a Team Member for the Gulf Coastal Plain Ecosystem Partnership (GCPEP) Wetland Ecosystem Support Team (WEST). The WEST was developed to support restoration of isolated wetlands in the GCPEP landscape for rare, threatened, and endangered species using chainsaws and brush cutters, invasive species control, and prescribed fire 🔥 Are YOU up for the challenge? Details at longleafalliance.org/get-involved. 📷 TLA's WEST crew works hard to remove woody wetland invaders each day (circle inset) but the pay off is seeing the diverse plants and critters of these imperiled embedded wetlands in the #longleaf landscape. Pictured are TLA's Alan Patterson, Samantha Dillon, and Connor Wagner. Photos by Nicole Barys.
#GoodFire happening across the range of #longleaf #GoodFire happening across the range of #longleaf thanks to a fantastic set of partners, landowners, and prescribed burners. 🔥🌲 #PrescribedFire is the number one management tool for #longleafpine habitats! In fact, burning on longleaf lands increased by 32,000 acres from 2019 to 2020 despite the challenges that fire practitioners faced in 2020. Burn crews adopted new safety measures, and training and education transitioned to virtual settings.
