  • Dragonflies, often affectionately called snake feeders for their voracious feeding habits on mosquito larvae and other small aquatic creatures, are known to have an impressive life cycle.
  • Since we designated this particular region a snake feeder habitat and due to protective regulations set, researchers consider our efforts to preserve their natural habitats quite successful.
