Welcome to the world little ones! Crocodile tegus (Crocodilurus amazonicus) were just born here at the zoo! Not a lot of them are born in captivity so it's quite a wonder to behold 🦎

What you're seeing here is a process that is pretty unique to this species. Psammophis sibilands, or the hissing sand snake, is an African species that does something called "scale polishing"
This is the process of using a special nasal gland located between the eye and nostril, to secrete a fluid containing fatty acids. It is thought that this is to help retain water because of the hot dry areas they're from!

Awesome day with kiddos enjoying the zoo and our fly river turtles! We offer tours for clubs,birthdays,school groups etc. so come out and visit!
This poor wild Hognose snake was found missing an eye and half of his face .. Fallon brought him to us in hopes that we could fix him up. A little love and time and this hognose was healed up and ready to be set free..
I think Society forgets that these aren't aggressive beings but are just animals like any other. They are animals like your cat or dog.
They only want to be left alone and sent on their way to search for food or to bask and feel the sun.
Killing them will only do harm to the environment, take away our chances to discover new medicines, and keep rodent populations down.
If you see a snake, just leave it be and they will be on their way. If you are concerned about a rattlesnake being around your property with kids etc, call a local wildlife removal service so that the animal can be in peace elsewhere and continue to do it's part..

Happy Friday! Our gorgeous male blue tree monitor (Varanus macraei) enjoying small treats this morning of chicken gizzards. Offering a varied diet to all captive reptiles is a critical factor to consider when keeping animals. In the wild these tree monitors feed heavily on insects,small birds,rodents. V.macraei is restricted to the island of Batanta in West Papua New Guinea. So come on out and catch a glimpse of this amazing animal at Reptilandia!
When it comes to lighting and UV, you really can't argue with results!! We've had great reproduction, happy animals, and most importantly they're Bumi approved!!

Such a cool moment to be able to watch when a snake completes its shedding cycle. The scientific term for this is called Ecdysis. Snakes can shed many times in their life. Young animals tend to shed more frequently because they are growing more frequently than adult animals. This is our yellow Anaconda (Eunectes notaeus). Yellow Anacondas females can reach up to 15 feet! However the green anaconda can get even larger and heavier bodied! The Yellow anaconda is found the Paraguay River and its tributaries, from the Pantanal region in Bolivia, Paraguay, and western Brazil to northeastern Argentinaand northern Uruguay. They prefer mostly aquatic habitats, including swamps, marshes, and brush-covered banks of slow-moving rivers and streams.
