Herpetology is the study of reptiles and amphibians and “herping” is the act of pursuing these critters in the wild. Engage the herpetofauna (herps) of Southwest Florida through a walk in the CREW lands with local ecologist and herpetologist, Shane Johnson. Shane has over 30 years of experience working with herps in both natural and captive environments. The walk will focus primarily on finding herps through a review of native habitats and careful inspection of artificial cover within the CREW lands. The walk will also include a discussion of the ecology and natural history of our local herp species.
