Our Awesome Reptiles
The Siamese Crocodile
This small crocodile is olive to dark green and has a small, broad snout and an elevated, bony crest behind each eye.
Japanese Giant Salamander
The second largest salamander in the world, it can reach more than 4 feet in length and weigh as much as 88 pounds. Its skin is a mixture of grey, black and white, and is heavily wrinkled. This species has an elongated body, a long broad tail and two pairs of legs that are similar in size. The eyes are small and positioned on top of the broad, flat head.
Reticulated Python
It is the longest snake species in the world, averaging around 22 feet and reaching up to 30 feet. A black criss-cross pattern runs the length of the python’s gray, brown and tan body, giving it the reticulated name. The snake’s coloring contributes to its ability for camouflage to elude predators and conceal itself from potential prey.
