Join Katrina Smith, Tim Hoen, and other members of the NHSM Herp Club for a discussion of chelonian husbandry. Club members are encouraged to bring their animals. Tim and Katrina will bring a few as well, including a giant Mexican musk turtle, uncommon in the pet trade!
Participants can ask questions and share their experiences. If you’re new to the world of turtles and tortoises, or if you’re simply curious about how to care for these amazing and ancient creatures, come hang out with experienced club members eager to pass on their expertise.
Are you fascinated with reptiles and amphibians? The Natural History Society of Maryland’s Herp Club was founded in 2018.

Monthly meetings are held the second Wednesday of every month. Membership to NHSM required. (NHSM membership is $35 for individuals, $50 for families.) Herp Club membership is an additional $5 for individuals and $10 for families annually. https://www.marylandnature.org/club-membership/
