Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Discovery Station – Rattlesnakes

Temperatures are climbing. Snakes are going be back soon. Don’t get anxious, get educated. Join Ranger Shaun for an anxiety reducing chat.  

Swing by the Nature Center to talk about the imminent (and annual) Return of the Rattlesnakes. When temperatures start climbing this time of year, we all know snakes won’t be far behind. Common wisdom holds its the 1st of April, but in truth it could be any day now. Maybe you’ve already seen one? Ranger Shaun is here to dispel myths, shed a little light, and shake up common misconceptions about snakes so that this year, everyone can be a little safer, and a little more comfortable in our big, sunny home.

MEETING LOCATION: Nature Center

No registration required.
