The Reptile Zoo

WI recently visited The Reptile Zoo located in Fountain Valley, CA. It seems the zoo used to simply be a pet store known as Prehistoric Pets.  Now the store has expanded into a mini reptile and some amphibian zoo and they seem to be looking to expand even more.  They have a very wide variety of reptiles, amphibians, and some other animals including tarantulas and I even spotted a pair of ducks!  The still have a pet store too so if you fall in love with reptiles you can certainly take one home too! 

This little guy had crazy big eyes!
Old wise one
The Eye of Sauron in real life!
Pair of wandering ducks.  I hope they weren't snake food!
You looken at me?

What a chill dude!

I enjoyed this little zoo as there was quite a lot of animals to see and I very much enjoy reptiles.  I would like more people to support this zoo by visiting because I really think they could use the funds as many of the enclosures were rather small some of the animals seemed over crowded.  Although they did seem to take fairly good care of their animals there was defiantly some room for improvement.  If they could get some extra space I think it would really help them out.

It does look like a great place to bring children because many of the enclosers were very low to the ground, perfect for little ones.  They also had a petting area where many children were petting snakes and chameleons and other such animals.  


The $5 admission is well worth the price and a great little day trip for the family.
