The Reserve and N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission are teaming up for the 7th year to conduct diamondback terrapin head count surveys. These surveys continue to help us better understand the status of Diamondback Terrapin populations at the Masonboro Island Reserve.
Teams of two are assigned a designated route to paddle in the creeks behind Masonboro Island and record sightings of Diamondback Terrapins and crabpots along the way. It's a great way to get involved as a citizen scientist and enjoy the outdoors at the same time.
