Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

THE LUCILLE F. STICKEL AWARD FOR BOX TURTLE RESEARCH FOR 2011

Box turtles have been present in North American for millions of years. But the picture is changing rapidly. Every long-term study of the box turtle has concluded that populations are declining at an alarming rate today. Protecting existing populations is complicated by the fact that there is still so much that we do not know about the life history, habitat needs, and population dynamics of box turtles. In an effort to contribute to the science that may save them, the Box Turtle Conservation Committee established the Lucille F. Stickel Box Turtle Research Award in 2009 to honor her fifty years of box turtle research.

To date, the Lucille F. Stickel Award has supported two important research projects; a summary of the research can be viewed at the above website.

In order to continue funding important box turtle research, donations to the Stickel Award are urgently needed. The North Carolina Zoological Society accepts donations for this research award. All donations are tax deductible and go directly toward research funding.
