I'm a retired Viet Nam Vet who has been “into” snakes since the mid 1950’s. I'm a field Herpetologist doing field work around the state of Texas. I'm a Charter life time member of the South Texas Herpetology Association and a member of the Austin Herpetology Association. In 2003 I had the chance to move to the Brazos Valley and become the Care Giver for the Sanctuary, a job which I consider a great opportunity as I get the chance to work with many reptile species instead of just snakes.
