When

Wednesday, October 9th, 2024 from 1:00pm to 4:00pm

Address

Shift Details

Community scientists search for reptiles under rocks, within tall grass, throughout the woodland and in Cibolo Creek. Anoles, skinks, whiptails, and other lizards, as well as ribbon snakes, blotched and diamondback water snakes, and many other species are recorded during this survey. The water snakes are caught, when possible, then pit-tagged and released on Saturday. This survey helps researchers monitor the diversity, dispersion, and health of the reptile population. It is highly recommended that appropriate attire (e.g. closed toed shoes/boots) be worn.

Requirements: None.

Note: If you have a fear of snakes, this survey will help you to learn to appreciate and respect them.

Requirement Details

Must be willing to learn and have fun!
