ecoEXPLORE Program: Herpetology Season

Join us for an educational program with the North Carolina Arboretum to learn all about the many different herptiles that call Western North Carolina their home! What’s a Herptile you ask? Herptiles are reptiles and amphibians! We’ll answer all of your biggest questions about herptiles, check out some artifacts, and even meet a reptile or amphibian up close! Come ready to hear about the ecoEXPLORE program, find out what distinguishes herptiles from other animals, where they live, what they eat, how they breathe, and much more! This program is geared for ages 5 to 13.

Scientists need YOUR help in studying animals everywhere, including your own backyard! Join the crew of ecoEXPLORERS — kids who submit observations of plants and animals for scientists to study and earn prizes while they do it: https://www.ecoexplore.net/
