How do YOU catch lizards??

November’s public workshop was so cool!  One of Scales & Tail’s entertainers, Jeremy Westerman, came and taught us all about finding cool things in the wild, like skulls, skins, bugs, and reptiles!  We talked about how sometimes its ok to take things we find out in the wilderness home and other times it is better to leave what we find, right where we found it.  Jeremy reminded us to take a camera with us so that if we find something cool that we can’t take home (because it is prohibited by law or because it just might not make a good pet) that we can still take a picture of it to remember it later!  Afterwards we had to practice researching about cool stuff we find in the wild and then we learned how to catch lizards using a 50 cent dowel and some dental floss!  It was a great night and I’m looking forward to next month already!  I hear it will be on Crodillians…

Danny Conner at the State Fair!

Danny is a great friend of ours from Texas.  He is the one that got Shane into doing reptile shows.  Danny will have crocodillians and alligator snapping turtles. These are animals that we are not allowed to own here in Utah without special permits.

New Pictures by Weston Hall Photography

We had another photo shoot with Weston Hall Photography to have the rest of our animals photographed.  Weston does an amazing job!  There are new pictures in the “Our Stars”, “Snakes”, “Lizards”, and soon the “Tortoises” galleries.  Check them out and let us know what you think!  Also, check out the link to Weston’s website in our “Links” section on our website to see some of his other work. (Parents: Weston does have one gallery on his site (called S&T Gone Wild) that is not appropriate for children, please supervise them if they want to check it out.)
