San Diego Herpetological Society
Hello! It’s Ellen again.
For this article, I chose to write about the booth offered by San Diego Herpetological Society. The San Diego Herpetological Society provides a hands-on interaction and education program with a variety of reptiles and amphibians, including snakes, lizards, tortoises and frogs — both common and endangered species! Reptiles are hypo-allergenic creatures. They are good for disabled and special needs guests and participants of all ages.
As one of the nation’s oldest herpetological societies, SDHS is an organization that has proudly served San Diego County for over 31 years. They work with public and private schools throughout San Diego, environmental education programs, city park and recreation departments, scouting & youth organizations, community programs, humane societies, utility companies, State Fish and Game, Lagoon Conservancy Organizations, Special Education groups and more in the education of the public regarding both indigenous and exotic species of reptiles and amphibians.
They participated in the San Diego Science Day Expo last year, and were packed the entire day. San Diego Herpetological Society even had participants following them out to the parking lot as they packed up at the end, so catch them while there’s plenty of time!
