Description

How can snakes with such eye-popping colors be so maddeningly difficult to find? Despite their iconic black, red, and white stripes, Lampropeltis pyromelana snakes, affectionately known as pyros, are masters of secrecy. Herpetologist Dallin Kohler guides readers on an exhilarating journey from picturesque sandstone canyons to an unexpected stop at a local casino, encountering a delightful array of creatures at every turn.

With humor, scientific insight, and endless curiosity, Pyro promises to ignite a newfound appreciation in seasoned herpetology enthusiasts, those curious about reptiles, and anyone who finds joy in exploring the natural world.
