Chris is CEO of the Orianne Society and faculty at University of Georgia. He is also the founding Chairman for the International Union for the Conservation of Nature’s Viper Specialist Group where he coordinates a network of viper conservation biologists from over 40 countries. Chris lives on Betty’s Creek and is an avid sportsman who spends a portion of most days on the ridges and along the rivers of Rabun. Chris will present on rattlesnake biology with a focus on busting many of the myths that exist and he will finish with advice on snake bite prevention and safety for fisherman on local rivers. We’ll also have a monthly raffle. This will be a great meeting for everyone!! Chris always presents a program to remember!! TELL EVERYONE!!
