Herpetological Society
Reptiles and Amphibians
in Our Backyard
Join us Saturday, March 24th at 7pm for an informative and exciting presentation on the reptiles and amphibians native to Southern Nevada. Ever wondered about that striped little lizard on the meter? Well come find out about this and more, like our protected reptiles. Look but don’t touch! Amphibians and Reptiles are an important and rich part of Nevada's ecosystems. As Urban development continues to expand across our desert it is important that we as citizens recognize the value of reptile and amphibian populations and conserve their habitats.
This is a Jr. Herper's Meeting but open to all SNHS members.
The General Meetings are held at the UNLV Coop, 8050 Paradise Road, Suite 100, Las Vegas, Nevada 89123
located at the corner of Paradise Road and Windmill (Exit Windmill from the 215)
Follow the sidewalk on the entrance gate side to the second building
As always, the success of any organization depends upon its members. If you are interested in a volunteer position and are a member of SNHS, please contact an SNHS Board Member
