Critter Talks are presented by AAron Capouellez, the owner of Woods and Forests Media. AAron holds a state permit for native reptiles and amphibians, which allows him to bring live specimens to his presentations.

 

 

Critter Talks are interactive educational presentations offered in schools, libraries, churches, and community centers across Pennsylvania. Each program features a unique mix of:

​

​

• Live animals such as American toads, gray tree frogs, millipedes, and other native species

• Conservation insights rooted in Frog Week’s citizen science and statewide amphibian monitoring

• Native plant and habitat education, including carnivorous plants and mushrooms
