South-east Queensland is home to a diverse snake fauna and most of us have snakes in our gardens. This workshop is designed for those who love snakes and those who fear them. It will cover aspects of the biology of these fascinating creatures and will shed light on their secret lives. There will also be significant focus on the identification of the snakes of South-east Queensland.
This workshop will explore these questions and will include:
- Information on the biology of snakes
- Provide insight into their secret lives
- Identification of local species using physical characteristics
Presenters:
Kieran Aland (Queensland Museum Inquiry Centre) has extensive experience with reptiles and is passionate about educating the public about these misunderstood creatures.
