This is a weekend morning ritual we fully support! This is a weekend morning ritual we fully support! #Longleaf and #Coffee? Yes please. Make sure you have a copy of The Longleaf Leader in your favorite reading spot by becoming a member of The Longleaf Alliance >> longleafalliance.org/donate! 📷 Our latest issue of The Longleaf Leader features Louisiana's Kisatchie National Forest and their journey since Hurricane Laura devastated many parts of the Forest in 2020. The summer issue's cover photo, by Randy Tate, was taken at the 2018 Biennial Longleaf Conference. Inspirational coffee and magazine picture by Jesse Wimberley.
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 DO 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

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.
