- Would your teen prefer a take home/craft? [yes, no, wouldn’t care]
- Would you be ok if your teen got to work with more dangerous animals such as a giant 10ft+ snakes, crocodiles, big lizards with potentially more severe bites [yes, no]

WE NEED YOUR HELP!! Donate or share this link to help us transition to a nonprofit organization! . For the past 20 years, Scales and Tails Utah has delivered educational presentations across the state and beyond. Our mission has always been to ignite a passion for wildlife in individuals of all ages, transforming curiosity into respect and understanding. . Seeing the excitement on people's faces as they engage with these creatures is incredibly rewarding. But what is even more fulfilling is when we shift perceptions and foster a deeper respect for animals that are often misunderstood or feared . Over two decades, we have refined our approach to education, constantly striving to enhance our methods. Now, we are ready to take the next step: transitioning to a non-profit organization. . This transition is a significant endeavor that requires $10,000 to cover the necessary fees and processes. We are reaching out to our community for support in this critical phase of our journey. . If Scales and Tails Utah has touched your life or sparked your interest in wildlife, we ask for your support to help us begin a new era for our organization. Your contribution will enable us to continue our mission in an incredible new way.
