Herpetology Club at NC State

Herpetology Club at NC State NC State students united with common interests in reptile and amphibian research and educating the public on their environmental significance.

The Herpetology Club at NC State’s goal is to educate our fellow students and the community about reptiles and amphibians. We aim to reduce ignorance that can lead to the senseless killing of our beneficial native species. At our meetings, herpetologists, local experts, and club alumni speak on their work studying reptiles and amphibians. Throughout the year, there a several club field trips to ca

tch, identify, and photograph wild herps, including a week long trip over spring break. In past years we have traveled to south and central Florida, southern Georgia, and throughout North Carolina. Contact information is posted in the “Additional Contact Info” section on our Facebook About page.

A couple of nights ago some of our members went out during one of the first warm rains of the season to see some amphibian migration! We (and the salamanders) are looking forward to the next one!

“As an undergrad I’ve worked as a dendrology TA, as well as the H**petology TA for the FWCB summer camp. I am currently wrapping up a year-long undergraduate research project consisting of a h**petology survey at Lake Raleigh Woods, a nearby urban forest. I have tried to take classes that would benefit my knowledge of community ecology.”
