Herper of the Month - June 2005
"What started as simply 'snake hunting' has evolved into something richer and broader in scope, with side interests in birding, botany, geology and lepidoptera. I have visited some fantastic places and have made some good friends along the way." |

"I work as a project manager for the National Center
for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois
in Urbana-Champaign. In 1994, when the Web was in its infancy,
I put together the first herp-related website. In 1996, I added
a Notes From The Field section and have been chronicling my herp
trips online ever since." www.pingleton.com |
| "There's
nothing I like better than to be outdoors with the 'game afoot';
fortunately my wife has been very supportive of my interests,
for which I am most appreciative." |
He is currently the president of the Champaign Area Society of Herpetoculturists.
