N. F. Angeli:
Conserving Species
in a Changing World
Amphibians and reptiles are often studied together. This branch of zoology is called herpetology. Herpetologists are trained to identify, study, conserve, and protect these animals.
Anyone can be a herpetologist! The Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles has more information on becoming a herpetologist:
How to be a Herpetologist
Take pictures, but do not handle amphibians and reptiles that you see in the wild. If you see an animal in distress, call local authorities to help!
Professionally, I am on the SSAR Conservation Committee and a resource if you wish to inquire on what the Society can do to aid conservation on the ground including petitions, programs, and technical support.
I am co-chair of the Caribbean Partners for Amphibian and Reptile Conservation (CaribPARC), a subchapter of Southeast PARC. We are a US-based organization, but our meetings are held regionally most recently in the Dominican Republic!
