Reptile Expo hosted by Herptile Rescue and Eduction Foundation. HREF's mission is to promote the welfare and conservation of reptiles and amphibians through education, research and community outreach and involvement. To advance education to ensure a sustainable future for reptiles and amphibians and to foster a culture of responsible ownership and stewardship among our members and general public through presentations, collaboration with libraries and schools and interactive meetings to further understanding and improve care.

Event is held at the Genesis Center located in Calgary AB. 7555 Falconridge Blvd NE #10. We love all animals but, please leave your pets at home. Only service animals allowed with proof and ID.

This event is put on solely by volunteers. No harassment or abuse of volunteers, the HREF board members or general public will be tolerated. 

All children must be escorted and supervised by a parent or adult. 

HREF is in no way associated with TARAS. In support of the reptile community and TARAS members with an active membership, HREF will be offering a 50% off admission at the door.
