Through outreach into the community, as well as on campus, the mission of the Herpetology lab is to incorporate the core values of Bowling Green State University while promoting appreciation of biological diversity and the understanding and respect of organisms encountered through the field of Herpetology. Volunteer work in the lab, providing hands-on demonstrations and lectures comprise our effort in encouraging respect in peoples’ reaction to reptiles while educating as well. Research utilizing proper reptile husbandry is encouraged in the same manner that all student-designed research is encouraged in the Department of Biological Sciences at BGSU. The Herpetology lab is committed to the learning that comes from hands-on experience.
