  • Campaigns

    Every year, thousands of people in Sub-Saharan Africa are killed or permanently disfigured due to snake-bite. Bites are under-reported and currently, many communities lack the resources and/or knowledge required to access proper medical treatment of venomous snake-bite.

    Herp Fauna has launched this campaign in hopes of correcting these issues. Click for more info!

Action Led Advocacy for Humanity and Wildlife

We advocate for both humanity and for Ugandas wildlife! Our research initiatives and educational reptile programs will improve the lives of people and wildlife across the country. Spreading awareness of snakebite prevention and first aid. Anti-venom and symptomatic hospital treatment are the only proven methods of treating venomous snake bites and Herp Fauna has future plans to contribute to anti-venom production in Uganda!

Snake Safety Education

Educational programs, designed to protect communities by educating about snake identification, snake bite first-aid and snake removal procedures.

Snake bite is one of the most significant health hazards to people living in rural areas of Eastern Africa. We empower local communities with the knowledge to help keep them safe from snake bite and effectively treat snake bites, when they do occur.
