Herps Alive Since our founding in 2013, we have found homes for over 3,000 reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates!!

The Herps Alive Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to saving, rehabilitating and caring for unwanted, neglected and abused reptiles and amphibians, and to finding new homes for them when possible, with an emphasis on educating the public. Licensed and insured, the Interactive Experience offers hands-on displays, lectures, roving programs and custom-designed residencies throughout t

he country. We have appeared on nearly 300 college campuses in 36 states and at over 500 other venues, performing thousands of programs for tens of thousands of people since we started as a high school project in 1976. Pricing varies with the type and location of program, starting at $200.

We have been made aware that individuals may be soliciting animals claiming to be "with Herps Alive." None of our volunteers are permitted to do this and anyone (except Keith who sometimes forget how he is logged on). If you are approached or see anyone saying they are representing us to solicit an animal, please message us so we can take action. Thank you
