Local herp societies

[CanadianHerp]

I've been wanting to join a herp society for some time now, but I dont know of any in my area. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any herp societies in southern Ontario, in the Belleville area (if you know it) or Kingston area.

Toronto is too far away from where I am to try to join any there.

If no one knows of any, could I maybe get some info on how to go about starting one?

Thanks a bunch!:)

speaking of the belleville area you wouldn't happen to know what the laws are like there?

Unfortunately no, I havent done any research on it yet. Might be something too look into in the future.

Waterloo is even farther than Toronto. Belleville is about 2 hours east of Toronto.

I apreciate all of the suggestions, but unfortunately, they're all to far away. Looks like I may have to try to start one. Does anyone have any idea on how to start one? Or if they happen to be in the area, if they would help/join?
