What is Herping & Why it matters
Thrilling. Wildlife. With Purpose.
Herping (also known as field herping) is an immersive outdoor pursuit where enthusiasts seek out reptiles and amphibians in their natural habitats. But today, herping is about more than exploration, it’s about connection, responsibility, and conservation.
Herping connects people to wildlife — conservation protects it forever
