American Herpetological Societies

This is a list of some of the many Herpetological societies in the United States of America. I must admit that I haven't updated these listings in some time so it's possible that some of these sites don't exist anymore or that their web addresses might have changed. This list is meant to help you find a herp society in your area, however if you can't find the site that's listed by all means try doing a search on Google or another search engine to see if you can find a more up to date listing.
