A photographic gallery of the reptiles, amphibians of Ohio dedicated to increasing the appreciation, awareness and public perception of these often misunderstood animals.

 

 

The goal of Buckeye Herps is to glorify the herpetofauna of Ohio. Ohio is blessed with richness in reptile and amphibian diversity. Many of the current and past leaders in the field of herpetology have their roots in the Buckeye State and it is my hope that others will continue to love Ohio's wildlife and uphold the tradition of discovery. Be aware some of these animals are under extreme amounts of pressure due to habitat loss and may be more sensitive to human disturbance. Enjoy the Buckeye Herps, but please tread carefully.

 

 

 

       

   

   

   

 

"Also, there were many objects to overturn, and there was always the chance of finding something unusual beneath any log or rock.... Southeastern Ohio was unquestionably our favorite collecting area." Roger Conant
