Sharing the Desert with Ssssnakes

Sometimes all it takes is a little knowledge to change fear into
fascination. That's why Phoenix Herpetological Sanctuary joined
us on this episode: to reintroduce to the world of snakes.
Katelyn Garcia, the sanctuary's Education & Outreach Director
as well as Cale Morris, Venom Manager for the sanctuary, help us
understand the importance of these reptiles and might help you
regard snakes in a different light.

Check out the Phoenix Herpetological Sanctuary to schedule a
tour, learn about their camp, or virtually adopt an animal at
PhoenixHerp.com and on social media under @PhoenixHerp. You can
also check out the online snake identification resource linked on
their website, which Katelyn and Cale mention in this episode,
ReptilesOfAZ.org.

Bonus! Read more about Clem the alligator relocated from the
Grand Canyon to Phoenix Herpetological Sanctuary as told by the
Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument.
