Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Discovery Station – Venomous Creatures

Join Ranger Olivia to talk about venomous creatures such as rattlesnakes, Gila monsters, scorpions, or any other desert dwellers you may encounter.  

It can seem like everything in the desert is out to sting, bite, or poke you. Ranger Olivia will shed some light about which ones are really out to get you, and which ones just need better agents. Drop on by for this unstructured, informal come-and-go style ranger table, where you can have a look at some of the venomous creatures behind glass, examine some artifacts, and learn that maybe the desert isn’t nearly as scary as you thought!

MEETING LOCATION: Nature Center

No registration required, just drop by between 12pm-4pm!
