23 | Dr. Emily Taylor on Research, Service, and Women in Herpetology

Dr. Taylor is an accomplished Reptile Physiological Ecologist that has dedicated her career to studying aspects of snake ecology such as thermal biology and physiological adaptations to desert environments. Chris and Emily discuss the research and students in her lab, and focus on translocation. They also go in depth into Central Coast Snake Services which is Emily’s company that provides communities with tools to help them live safely in snake country without needing to harm the snakes. Finally, they discuss Emily’s manuscript, that is in press, on trends in women in herpetology. Connect with Chris on Facebook, Instagram or at The Orianne Society. Shop Snake Talk merch.
