Join Ranger Olivia to talk about venomous creatures such as rattlesnakes, gila monsters,
scorpions, or any other desert dwellers you may encounter. Click program title for more details.
It can seem like everything in the desert is out to sting, bite, or poke you. Ranger Olivia will shed some light about which ones are really out to get you and which ones just need better agents. Drop on by for this unstructured, informal come-and-go style ranger table, where you can have a look at some of the venomous creatures behind glass, examine some artifacts, and learn that maybe the desert isn’t nearly as scary as you thought!
MEETING LOCATION: Nature Center
No registration required, just drop by between 10am-2pm!
Please note: Summer programs may be canceled on short notice due to severe weather, including extreme heat events. The Maricopa County Parks website is the best resource for verifying the program’s current status, so please check the program listing prior to departing for your scheduled program.
