New list of Georgia's protected species gives snapshot of how critters are doing
While the cougar was removed from the list, not because its populations are better, but because of extirpation, many species are being looked at carefully so they don't have the same misfortune. Several herps have been added or status changed including the striped newt, flatwoods salamander, gopher frog and the hognose snake. This seems like a positive move in the right direction to helping these animals regain their healthy population status.
