Reptile surveying and handling, 1-day course
This introductory level course will greatly enhance your understanding of reptile surveys and give you confidence in handlng reptiles. The course is especially relevant to consultancy as a huge proportion of consultancy work during the summer months involves reptile surveying and translocation projects.

During the day course you will:
• Learn to identify UK reptile species
• Learn best practice in handling of reptiles (including slow worms and non-native snakes)
• Carry out a field survey of a ‘development site'
• Learn about surveying and mitigation strategies.
