They’re slippery, they’re scaly, and they don’t have legs. They’re the star of some of our scariest nightmares, but Elise Huffman says snakes are some of nature’s most misunderstood creatures.
Huffman, an animal welfare activist with Rocky’s Reptiles, feels so strongly about her serpentine friends that has taken her passion on the road, so-to-speak.
She hosts a series of Snake Charming workshops at the Okanagan Science Centre where she lets people of all ages get up close and personal with pythons and corn snakes in hopes of driving away fears and diminishing doubts about these scaly squamates (reptiles).
