Lizards: they’re cute, quirky, and mind-bogglingly diverse—and yet, they often go unnoticed in California’s wild landscapes. It’s time to change that.
Join herpetologist and author Dr. Emily Taylor for an eye-opening lecture on the fascinating world of California's lizards. In this engaging talk inspired by her new book, "California Lizards and How to Find Them," Dr. Taylor will introduce you to some of California's iconic lizard species, offering insights into their behavior, habitats, and how to find and observe them in the wild.
Through beautiful photography and lively storytelling, you'll walk away with a newfound appreciation for these remarkable reptiles. Whether you're a longtime reptile enthusiast or just lizard-curious, this is your chance to see California's landscapes in a whole new way!
Be sure to stop by the Museum store after the talk for a book sale and signing of Dr. Taylor's new book, "California Lizards and How to Find Them."
