VT: Cibolo Center for Conservation Water Snake/Reptile Survey-Kendall County

October 12 @ 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Address

140 City Park Road, Boerne, TX 78006

Shift Details

Community scientists search for reptiles under rocks, within tall grass, throughout the woodland and in Cibolo Creek. Anoles, skinks, whiptails, 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.

Requirements: None. Appropriate attire is always recommended (e.g. closed toed shoes/boots) but you might also end up in the creek so your call on clothing choices.

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