Slither over and learn about snakes in Louisiana and why they are important to the natural ecosystem.
Kevin Hood with Louisiana Snake ID will discuss misconceptions about snakes, explain why they benefit our environment, share some cool facts, and present some common species native to our state. He’ll also provide information about how to identify venomous snakes. At the end of each show, audience members can pet, hold, and take photos with a few of the snakes owned by Kevin’s family.
Kevin Hood and his family run Louisiana Snake ID, which started as a way of providing snake identification to friends on Facebook. The family now travels the state for educational shows and has been featured in Louisiana Sportsman magazine.
