Join us for an engaging workshop that explores the venomous and poisonous species of the Western United States. You'll learn essential first aid, safety precautions, and how to properly equip and prepare for encounters in the field. The session concludes with an optional hands-on training, where you'll practice safely handling and relocating snakes. Additionally, there will be a display of live animals from California, helping participants identify commonly encountered venomous reptiles from our region.
