There's a interactive display at the mall close to campus from Friday-tomorrow (Sunday). I went both on Friday PM, and a LOT of today (essentially from 10-3:45).
They had different pets that people own... from types of snakes, to turtles, to skinks, to toads and frogs.
You could pay to have your picture taken with some of the different animals if you wanted. And boy, did I ever *want* to. So I did.
(And I have every intention of going back tomorrow after church!)
This is a Royal Ball Python. Lovely lady... very thick, not too long... 5-6 feet I believe.
This is a Brazilian Rainbow Boa. Lovely creature. A little skittish though. Probably the longest snake at the exhibit... maybe 7 feet?
These are male and female Black Rat snakes. Liked to move. But a wonderful colour. Male is smaller than the female... which apparently is quite typical.
These last two snakes... One has rough scales, and shed all over me just by it's moving around. The other is albino (but apparently is missing two genes, and not just one which is a typical albino) so she (or he) is pure white, not yellow.
I forgot to record their names though, so when I go back tomorrow (hopefully for more pics!) I'll edit this post... or post new pics!!
I love snakes. Actually, I just love animals.
