What We Do
The Herpetological Society of Singapore is a volunteer-run group of herpetology enthusiasts. We are passionate about the conservation, appreciation, and study of reptiles and amphibians in Singapore and Southeast Asia.



We are big on education and outreach! Come join us on our regular public guided walks and see what herps we can find in our own backyard. Or perhaps come listen to one of the many talks we give around the island!
We are also passionate about advancing regional herpetological knowledge. We regularly support herpetofauna surveys and conduct research. Do you work on reptiles and amphibians in Singapore and Southeast Asia? Let us know! We’d love to feature your work.
