The Furman Forest

As a part of the Furman Forest initiative, Furman University faculty and students are conducting surveys of various taxonomic groups. This survey began in 2005 with permission of The Nature Conservancy. As surveys progress, we will activate the links for surveyed groups. Through this research, we hope to catalog the species that are present and track changes in populations of special concern.
