Here at the BGSU Herpetarium, we enjoy spreading our love and knowledge of our animals in unique, kid-friendly ways.  By doing so, we hope to dispel and prevent fears and misconceptions of reptiles and amphibians.

Feel free to print out some coloring pages and read our children’s books, all of which were created by students in BIOL 4530 Amphibian and Reptile Husbandry. Have fun and share with the family!

Also, be sure to check out our trading cards! You can view these, along with other creative works inspired by the Herpetarium inhabitants, on our BioArt page.
