2020 Las Vegas Perspective  2020 LAS VEGAS PERSPECTIVE 2020 Las Vegas Perspective Volume: Forty July 28, 2020 So far, 2020 has been one of the most challenging in recent memory, not only for Southern Nevada but for the world at large. A global pandemic, social unrest, and elevated uncertainty have all gripped our community. During these difficult times, we need the thoughtful information and analysis provided by the Las Vegas Perspective more than ever before. Our theme for this year’s 40th annual event and publication is “Together, We Can: Partnering on a Path to Recovery.” With this theme in mind, our speakers, commentary, and data are all designed to provide you with a fresh look at our community while charting the course for economic recovery together. On that note, this year’s Perspective will look different and be delivered primarily online. In the pages that follow, we have included the latest market information wherever possible. However, due to rapid changes in our economy, some data sets are reflective of our community prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Beyond our newly digital publication and annual event, LVGEA’s efforts to deliver valuable economic insight will continue year-round. We’ll provide you with a quarterly newsletter – the Perspective Update – full of refreshed data and deeper dives into community and economic recovery issues throughout the year. This virtual Perspective event would not be possible without the generous contributions of community partners and businesses. The sponsor companies comprising LVGEA’s Perspective Council made this valuable publication available digitally and guided its research and thoughtful analysis contained in it. We are here for you and your business during this difficult time. Not only through this publication, which we hope provides you with valuable data as you go about your business and community life in Southern Nevada, but through our determined efforts to strengthen Southern Nevada’s economy together.

  • Venomous Reptiles of Nevada
    Venomous Reptiles of Nevada Figure 1 The buzz from a rattlesnake can signal a heart stopping adventure to even the most experienced outdoor enthusiast. Figure 2 Authors M. L. Robinson, Area Specialist, Water/Environmental Horticulture, University of Nevada Cooperative Extension Polly M. Conrad, Wildlife Diversity Biologist—Reptiles, Nevada Department of Wildlife Maria M. Ryan, Area Specialist, Natural Resources, University of Nevada Cooperative Extension Updated from G. Mitchell, M.L. Robinson, D.B. Hardenbrook and E.L. Sellars. 1998. What’s the Buzz About Nevada’s Venomous Reptiles? University of Nevada Cooperative Extension—Nevada Department of Wildlife Partnership Publication. FS-98-35. SP 07-07 (Replaces FS-98-35) NEVADA’S REPTILES Approximately 52 species of snakes and lizards share the Nevada landscape with us. Of these, only 12 are considered venomous. Only 6 can be dangerous to people and pets. Encountering them is uncommon because of their body camouflage and secretive nature, which are their first defenses in evading predators. Consider yourself fortunate if you do see one! As with all wildlife, treat venomous reptiles with respect. Reptiles are ectothermic, meaning their body temperature increases or decreases in response to the surrounding environment. They are most active in the spring, summer and early fall when it’s comfortable, short sleeve weather for us. Reptiles usually hibernate, or brumate, in winter in response to colder temperatures. During high summer temperatures in the Mojave Desert, reptiles may spend time underground in order to maintain vital body temperatures. In most cases*, collecting Nevada’s native reptiles is not allowed without the appropriate permit, which is issued by the Nevada Department of Wildlife.
