That is exciting stuff. There is some good stuff going on here in Missouri too, with Jeff Ettling at St. Louis zoo and Jeff Briggler from Missouri Department of Conservation. The zoo has a great stream set-up for them and an amazing set-up for growing out the larva.
 
I hope they work something out. I live near one of the areas that is the last stronghold for this species in Pennsylvania. I've gone out a number of times trying to find them but I've never had any luck.
 
Very cool. I have always wanted one of those things but I guess I will have to wait for some CB ones to become available.
 
Those are amazing. When I first learned about them, they were reportedly abundant.

To have been born when the wild was untouched would have been suitable. To have been born long after its death would also have allowed me some peace. But to stand here at the beginning of beautiful nature's death throes as a helpless observer...what kind of monster could just accept this fate? And there's so little I can do.
 
Dang... Please don't die out... Hellbenders are just so darn awesome.
