Snake Sense: Separating Myth from Fact

Description

Georgia is home to over 40 species of native snakes, and only six are venomous! These fascinating reptiles are vital to healthy, diverse ecosystems and are an important part of our natural heritage. Join our Coastal Ecology Specialist Kimberly Andrews for an engaging program at our Brunswick office that will help you confidently distinguish venomous snakes from non-venomous species and share practical tips for minimizing risk around your home. Participants will have an opportunity to interact with live snakes from our teaching collection and ask plenty of questions. This interactive session will challenge common myths and leave you better prepared for future encounters with these often-misunderstood animals. Registration is required. Content is best suited for children ages 5 and up, but all ages are welcome. Participants under 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult.
