Steve Marks has been teaching people about reptiles since he first got over his fear of snakes. He is a volunteer for numerous projects, primarily focused on reptiles, and has contributed to the success of several conservation organizations over the years. He’s invested energy in the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre, spent a decade as President of the Ontario Herpetological Society, 8 years as Vice President of Essex County Nature, Canadian Herpetological Society, and has volunteered with various Ontario Nature projects. For Steve, 2025 marked 31 years of volunteer spotted turtle surveys, and 20 years of volunteer surveys for Parks Canada. Steve has been involved with Scales Nature Park, since 1994, and currently resides there… mostly outside, and has been named their Herpetologist Emeritus, inspiring and mentoring young biologists.
Steve will be speaking with us about the amazing snakes of Mnidoo-gamii - Georgian Bay.
