This past Second Saturday event the Ameal Moore Nature Center invited visitors to join with us in a day all about rattlesnakes!

Visitors came in to hear about rattlesnakes, and were able to get up close to specimens on loan from a local college!  Crafts included rattlesnake pattern decoration and small replica painting.

Rattlesnakes are fascinating creatures! They scare many visitors, but we at the nature center love them and understand that they are an important part of the park’s ecosystem.

If snakes scare you, try learning about them- they won’t be so scary once you understand them a bit better!
