May 4th is Salamander Saturday! NHSM invites you to celebrate these often underrated amphibians with our Herp Club. Associate curator of herpetology Tom Scollins will bring various salamanders for you to interact with in person; club members and other attendees are also invited to bring in their own pets. We’ll also be joined virtually by Caley Johnson of the Foundation for the Conservation of Salamanders, who’ll tell us about ongoing efforts to protect the animals and their habitats.
This meeting of the NHSM Herp Club will take place in person at 6908 Belair Rd. If you can’t join us in person, contact the club coordinator (mfalk@marylandnature.org) for Zoom access.
