Join us for an exciting and informative San Diego Herpetological Society (SDHS) meeting, where we welcome our very own Xela Riveraluis, an experienced animal trainer and handler, to discuss the fascinating world of reptile and amphibian training and enrichment.

Xela has worked with a wide variety of herps, both large and small, and will be sharing her insights on:
