Many of you have probably heard of most of these people.
When you watch their shows, you see a lot of crazy antics and it's
easy to see they are passionate about their jobs, and are having
fun. While what they are doing IS fun, keep in mind that for
most of us, what they are doing is ILLEGAL--most states and
countries have numerous regulations governing what you can and
can't do regarding herps. Celebrities can often get special
permits for these shows due to the exposure the shows generate for
tourism and conservation efforts. ALWAYS CONSULT LOCAL
REGULATIONS before herping!

Brady Barr on the National Geographic Channel. |

| Jeff
Corwin yet another Animal Planet guy; doesn't deal solely with
herps but does feature them quite a bit. |
|
| Steve
Irwin ("The Crocodile Hunter") of Animal Planet
fame. Love him or hate him, you have to admire his
enthusiasm! |
|
| Mark
O'Shea another Animal Planet guy ("O'Sheas Big
Adventure"); pretty neat site. |

These sites feature message boards for discussion of recent
finds, methods, equipment, ethics, etc. There are other
sites out there, some region-specific, but I usually just browse
and post on these:
|
|
| Field
Herpers excellent forum where participants post pics of their
finds. Regulation is almost nonexistent (by design) so
anticipate some heated debate! |
|
| FieldHerpForum
discussion board plus pages of habitat pictures. |
|
| Herp-Pix
Yahoo group. |
|
| Kingsnake.com
Field Notes & Observations Moderated, so sometimes posts
are capriciously deleted. Really! They have a strict
Terms of Service agreement which apparently I've violated from
time to time.

Some of these people are personal friends. Some are
people from the above-named discussion groups. Others are
sites I stumbled across, and others are reciprocal links of people
who found my site first! When I first created my site in
1997, I thought I was the only person doing what I was doing
(posting pics of herping adventures online). The Internet
has shown otherwise, and it has given me the opportunity to herp
new areas and meet new people.
