Kansas Herpetological Society
ABOUT US
The KHS is a non-profit 501c3 organization founded in Lawrence, Kansas, in 1974 by Joseph T. Collins and colleagues, designed to encourage scholarship, research, and dissemination of scientific information through the facilities of the Society; to encourage conservation of wildlife in general and of the herpetofauna of Kansas in particular; and to achieve closer cooperation and understanding between herpetologists, so that they may work together in common cause. The KHS is not a herpetocultural organization, but encourages individuals to keep and maintain native Kansas herpetofauna for educational and research purposes.
