Reptile Publications
From scales to claws to point teath and beaks, reptiles are some of the most diverse and amazing collection of species in our area. With unique adaptations like ectothermy (cold-blooded), the ability to survive over winter by slowing their metabolisms, and even live birth (in gartersnakes), reptiles are fascinating.
