information about salamanders is available from the Illinois Department
of Natural Resources (IDNR). The Illinois Natural History Survey studies
salamander distributions and population levels and maintains a research
collection of salamanders. The Division of Natural Resource Review and
Coordination reviews development plans proposed by local and state governments
and recommends measures to reduce or avoid adverse impacts to endangered
and threatened species and their habitats. The Division also provides
information about the distribution of endangered and threatened species
in Illinois. The IDNR Educational Services Section sponsors Project WILD
and Project WILD Aquatic and provides educational materials for teachers
on a variety of natural resource topics. Educators may borrow a wetland
kit through the Education Section of the Illinois State Museum.
