Join us inside the Jones Archaeological Museum Earth Lodge on September 19, 2026 from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. for a snake safety program with Dylan Taylor of Alabama Extension. Dylan will present on Alabama’s native snakes, covering identification and safety, with live snakes on hand throughout the program. 

Fall marks the second breeding window for many Alabama snake species, making this an ideal time to learn how to safely identify and coexist with snakes in the field.
