The Virginia Herpetological Society’s (VHS) mission is to advance the conservation, education, and research of Virginia’s native herpetofauna. Each year, the VHS Education Committee performs a variety of education programs throughout Virginia and virtually online.

No fees are charged for these programs, and all VHS educators are volunteers. The VHS is a 501c3 non-profit organization, and tax deductible donations to support the VHS can be made at Donate - Virginia Herpetological Society.

We offer slideshow presentations, educational table displays, and educational nature/herp walks. Please note that the VHS does not keep captive animals.
