General Meeting
Third Thursday of the month
7:30pm
Meeting Location:
Eaton Canyon Nature Center
1750 North Altadena Drive
Pasadena, CA 91107
Vincent Fricano will be speaking on the husbandry and breeding of monitor
lizards. His talk will focus on the keeping and
breeding of crocodile monitors.
At the early age of 6 years, Vince acquired a savannah monitor which
launched his career of raising monitors. On a nature show by Marc O'Shea, Vince
first learned about crocodile monitors and began his fascination and passion for
them. He worked as a monitor breeder for Prehistoric Pets in Fountain Valley under
the tutelage of Jay Brewer and Tim O'Reilly. He now keeps reptiles for fun and as
a hobby.
Come and meet the tamest crocodile monitor you will probably ever encounter!
Robert Hess will be planning and leading herping outings in
the SGV area. Please email Sharon Shingai at sshingai@att.net
