Southeastern Species in Greatest Need of Conservation

To address the broad conservation needs of the southeast, the Southern Appalachian Information Node (SAIN) compiled GCN species lists from eight Southeastern U.S. states - Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi - into interactive species information. The species are searchable by species group (taxa) - amphibian, bird, fish, mammal and reptile - or by state and provide live information such as distribution, taxonomy, habitat, and images from a variety of resources.
