Most people are appalled by the sight and sound of reptiles - especally snakes - however, herpetologist (snake specialist) Fred Boyce disputes general assumptions and attempts to make clear misconceptions associated with reptiles. Using a wide array of native reptilian creatures, including frogs, turtles, lizards and snakes, Fred uses a "hands-on" approach to educate his audience. Guests will have the opportunity to touch and see several of the animals up-close. Come and enjoy an afternoon of learning and fun!

 

This program, held in the Museum Annex,  is open to children and adults. Museum members are free. Donations are welcome by all.  Procedes will go towards future programs for the public.
