Herpetology: The study of amphibians and reptiles
en
Herpetology is the study of reptiles and amphibians. Posts range from talking about wild animals and sharing photos to discussion about new papers in the field or other biological questions. Posts asking for identification help must include a rough geographic location, such as county and state. Do not include specific locations. Do not ask for specific locations. Please post herpetoculture or other pet care questions in the appropriate subreddit.
Posts about captive herps or husbandry are considered herpetoculture and in most cases do not belong here. Please strongly consider posting any pet photos in r/Herpetoculture or any of the pet subreddits instead.
