Amphibian and Reptile Workshop

This is a field-oriented workshop that is designed to allow you to see, collect, and handle special-status herps from California, but we conduct it in Baja California. The workshop is offered as a partnership between The Wildlife Project and Conservación de Fauna del Noroeste (a non-profit supporting herps in Baja). The workshop leaders, both of whom are extremely accomplished herpetologists and great people, will guide you around to see dozens of species of wildlife, most of which are rare in California, but can be handled in Baja. California red-legged frogs, arroyo toads, two-striped garter snake, and many others are common and will be observed.
