Notes: Most of the newts were fresh which mean they were squashed last night or early morning. At least 3 people stopped to ask and learn more about the Newt Survey.

@karangattu, I'm so glad you photographed the newts within the study boundaries, since they haven't been very forthcoming in sharing their data with us. At least we'll have some data in their areas. It looks like the road was a bloody mess this morning. It's much harder to emotionally deal with the slaughter when there're lots of blood and guts. Thanks for doing an excellent job recording data in iNat!
