Reptiles at Risk

Fun with a Special Guest

Posted by Jeff Hathaway on August 17, 2009 at 2:50 PM

Last week was an exciting day for the RAR crew, as we had visitors from the Ojibway-Prarie Complex come to our program in La Salle. Not only did they hand out cool snake stickers and books, they also offered to bring us back to the Ojibway-Prarie Complex nature centre. While there, we were able to enjoy seeing some of the reptiles that they had on display, which included a Massasauga Rattlesnake, a Butler's Garter, and a juvenile Blanding's Turtle. We were also fortunate enough to see a coyote right outside the centre, which as far as mammals go, is pretty cool. In other news, Robin bought a spiffy pair of snow pants in preparation for winter. That's our Robin - always prepared. However, there is still plenty of summer left to enjoy, and thanks to Robin's preparatory skills, we already completed our 80th program! We also reached number 90 today so we will probably be uncorking something later on in celebration.
