Southern California has a wide range of habitats and is home to a diverse reptile and amphibian population. Learn about the genetic variability of various frogs, toads, turtles, snakes and others that allow them to blend in and survive in their surroundings according to God's plan.

Did you know that if pet turtles are released in the wild where they do not normally live, it can effect the habitat and livelihood of the other turtles? God gave us dominion over the animals and with that there is responsibility placed on us to not disturb the natural environments.
