Reptiles of the Bokarina Wallum and Foreshore
New sculptural snakes are harmless and would love to have you sit by them.
These new sculptural snakes are harmless and would love to have you sit by them and see their motley skin up close. The Bokarina Wallum, dune and beach zones are home to many wonderful reptiles including, lizards, frogs, snakes and turtles. November to May is the nesting season for Loggerhead turtles and the females come ashore to lay their eggs in the dunes well above the high tide mark. The Wallum zone behind the beach and dunes is the home for frogs such as the Wallum Froglet and the Wallum Rocket frog. Other reptiles such as the Lace Monitor (Goanna), the Carpet Snake (or Carpet Python) and many other smaller lizards and snakes also live in the Wallum zone.
