The Calusa Herpetological Society Of Southwest Florida

Thursday, September 2, 2021 - 7:00 pm

SPEAKER & TOPIC:  This month’s speaker is Calusa Herpetological Society member Paula Treu. She is going to lead a discussion on what the average person and amphibian and reptile keeper can do to assist with conservation efforts. Paula will have a live animal presentation showing examples of species preservation. She will also discuss conservation techniques that can be used while keeping reptiles at home, volunteering, and while enjoying wildlife in nature.

Paula has bred a variety of herp species over the last 8 years, but has been a reptile keeper for 15 years. She is active in the crested gecko and sand boa community, as well as worked with many conservation groups and reptile farms. She and her fiancé Matthew are owners of Tectonic Exotics. 

We will go to dinner afterwards at Texas Roadhouse on Six-mile Cypress Blvd, just south of Colonial Blvd.

WHO'S INVITED ? You are! Anyone with an interest in any aspect of herpetology or herpetoculture is welcome to attend, learn, and exchange their experiences with our friendly membership. Come out to meet others who keep, breed or study reptiles and amphibians, and let them share their fascination with you.
