Michaleia Mead Masters Student Email: msm5545@psu.edu Research Interests I am very interested in both the ecology of wildlife, specifically amphibians and reptiles, and how their presence can be affected by habitat quality and anthropogenic impacts on the ecosystem. In the future I hope to further my education and contribute to the conservation and understanding of these animals, and engage the general public in science and the wonders of the environment in which they live.
