Tree Frog Treks, located in Bernal, is a bustling animal rescue featuring reptiles, amphibians, and arachnids. Founded by trained zoologist Chris Giorni, the facility started with a garter snake and painted turtle, evolving into a rescue operation by 2001. The animals, often referred from local shelters or the San Francisco Zoo, serve as educational ambassadors. In field activities at Golden Gate Park, young children experience hands-on interactions with tree frogs, enhancing their curiosity and learning through direct engagement with wildlife.
