Rattlesnakes are some of the last predators left in the Blue Ridge Mountains and they are local residents to Brasstown Bald Mountain. On July 27, Dr. Chris Jenkins, snake researcher and CEO of the Georgia based Orianne Society, will present a slide talk “Rattlesnakes of Appalachia” along with a meet-n-greet with one of our native slithery friends. This is not to be missed!

Program is free with park entry of $5 per adult, 15 & under are free.  America the Beautiful passes are accepted.
The Orianne Society is one of the leading organizations for the conservation of reptiles and amphibians. We are focused on science and the conservation of critical habitats. Though we think globally, we work strategically in specific landscapes through well-designed initiatives. Within each of these initiatives, we define places and species as conservation priorities. We work with a diverse group of partners in each initiative to achieve conservation success.
