Herpetology (Greek herpeton = to creep, to ramp and logos = in this context explanation or reason) is the branch of zoology concerned with the study of reptiles and amphibians. Many biologists use the term "herp" for all reptiles and amphibians.
Herpetology deals with what are called the cold-blooded tetrapods, that is, those land vertebrates which are ectothermic (deriving their body temperature from their environment) rather than endothermic (deriving their body heat from an independent, internal source). Studies in this field also relate to snakes (the cold-blooded reptiles lacking limbs).

What you want to do is specialize and become a hippy-herpes-herpetologist.. They get to wear those really cool love beads and Nehru jackets whilst examining turtle cold sores.
