Field Notes

Description:

It was still alive, but I doubt it will survive...pretty nasty injury...don't know what happened but I believe it was surpassing an almost deserter road when a vehicle pass over him....that is what usually happens in that area which is uninhabited.

yes, unfortunately, I have tried to move it away from the road...but I believe it didn't survive much :(

mislim da nije dugo prezivio nakon susreta! potrudila sam se traziti ove ne-falične, ali stvarno ih nije bilo....
