Georgia is home to over 40 species of native snakes, and only six are venomous! These fascinating reptiles are vital to healthy, diverse ecosystems and are an important part of our natural heritage.

Join our Coastal Ecology Specialist Kimberly Andrews for an engaging program at the UGA Marine Education Center and Aquarium that will help you confidently distinguish venomous snakes from non-venomous species and share practical tips for minimizing risk around your home. Participants will have an opportunity to interact with live snakes from our teaching collection and ask plenty of questions.

This interactive session will challenge common myths and leave you better prepared for future encounters with these often-misunderstood animals.

Cost: $15. Registration is required for participants ages 3 and up and includes admission to the UGA Aquarium. This program is designed for ages 5 and up, but younger children are welcome. Participants under 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult.
