Graduate
students help teach the laboratory sections of Dr. Pauley's classes. The
main emphasis of both Herpetology and Ornithology is to learn the native fauna
of West Virginia. The study of live and preserved specimens remains one of
the most effective ways for students to recognize these animals.
Here are some pictures taken during Herpetology and Ornithology laboratory sessions.

Not everything can be
learned in a laboratory. Dr. Pauley's Ornithology class is primarily field
based. Here are a some
pictures taken during Ornithology field trips to local parks.
