Improvements In Progress!
3/28/2008
You may have noticed some changes around Snake Farm & Exotic Animal World lately. Not only are there new animals, like warthogs and hyenas, but the exhibits are changing, too.
A lot of work goes into planning and building exhibits. Of course the enclosure must be appropriate and safe for the animals, but it also has to be designed to meet the needs of the animal caretakers and visitors, too. Then, once the designing stage is completed, construction begins!
Currently being built are a series of new exhibits that will house a variety of small mammals and birds. Some of the new residents may include mongoose, civets, genets, kookaburra and Amazon parrots. These exhibits should be ready for move in by early summer…see you then!

New Addition!

We are excited to welcome our newest addition... a baby Ring-tailed Lemur born here, at Animal World & Snake Farm! For the first few weeks of life, this little one will cling tightly to mom's underside, then become more adventurous and ride on mom's back. Visit often to watch this little one grow!

With all of these snakes found here, it's important to know which snakes are venomous and which are not.

Diverse Venomous Selection
3/10/2008
Over the past few months we are proud to have added many new snakes to the venomous section. Several of these are of the world's deadliest species and many of them are rarely seen on display anywhere in the country. Where else can you see a twelve foot King Cobra, Taipans, King Browns, Spitting Cobras, and Gaboon Vipers all in the same room?
