It s kind of crazy to think here in Michigan we have a reptile such as the Easter Massauga Rattlesnake, even though they aren t even the biggest snake we have in this state.
With warmer weather coming back, you can expect many amphibians as well as reptiles to start emerging more now.
The Michigan Department of Natural Resources is asking those who venture out this spring, to keep their eyes out for reptiles such as snakes, turtles, lizards, frogs, toads, and even salamanders.

Alarming spike in Great Lakes drownings tied to COVID-19, study finds

An alarming spike in the number of drownings across several of the Great Lakes last year may have been linked to the COVID-19 pandemic, a new research study finds.
The drownings, particularly on Great Lakes Michigan, Ontario and Huron, appeared to correlate to times when government restrictions on movement were relaxed amid the pandemic. As community swimming pools, water parks and other options for cooling off in the summer remained closed, more people apparently chose to visit local beaches on the Great Lakes. At many of those beaches, COVID-19 contributed to local governments not providing lifeguards, swimming area markings or flag warnings for dangerous wave days.
