"Herper" Of The Year 2009

Josh Stumpf

Age: 14

Location: Washington, PA

The apprentice of Pennsylvania Woodland Herpetological president John Mendrola, Josh's herpetological interests are broad. Josh is an avid field-herper, and has mastered many of Pennsylvania’s native species. During the past few months, Josh has shown great development in his handling and husbandry skills and has begun studying many herpetological fields of science. Josh is currently studying under the guidance of P.W.H.S. president John Mendrola to pursue venomous reptile husbandry in the near future. Josh has also assisted with a 2009 Woodland Herpetological Nerodia s. sipedon study. Josh is pictured here holding one of the four Black Rat Snakes he has captured field-herping this year. The Black Rat Snake is a first-time-catch for Josh this year. In addition to the Black Rat Snake, he also captured his first Pennsylvania Eastern Milk Snake this year.
