At the Zoo...In the Gate Building

Home to many of our rescued reptiles!  Donate today
and help us help neglected reptiles.

Most of the animals inside the gate building are rescues from people who could no longer take care of them or were taken from their owners because of neglect and abuse.

Help us help neglected and abused animals today!

Burmese Pythons, we currently have a three large pythons.  "Banana" the beautiful albino female and "Zena" the boy.  "Sunny" is a new albino python that was found severely underweight and has suffered tremendous abuse...she is missing a large portion of her tongue and had severe scale rot!  All of these snakes are now doing well and "Sunny" is almost completely healed!

Sulcata Tortoise, "Sid"  and "Ginger" are new additions to the Promised Land Family.  He had outgrown his previous owners and they could no longer take care of him!  Sid can be found in the petting zoo when the weather is warm enough for him to graze.  He's only 20 pounds right now, but will reach over 100 pounds in the future.  Sulcata tortoises are the third largest tortoise in the world!

Reticulated Python, "Randall" has a bad attitude, but is in good hands now.  This recently hatched python was rescued after being severely underweight.  He is very aggressive and will prove to be a challenge as he can reach a length of around 30 feet!

Iguana, "Callista" is a large female iguana that loves car rides and children.  She will close her eyes when you pet her and beg for more attention.   

American Alligator, "Tater" is about three years old and growing so fast!  Every September, we hold our annual "Gator Aid" Animal Rescued animal fundraiser.  Tator was rescued from a situation where he left to die.  Left with no food or water, animal control placed him in our care.  Help us help abused and neglected wildlife today!

Sugar Gliders, "Mika" and "Gizmo" just finished raising their first litter of young.  They are nocturnal marsupials from Australia.  You might be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of these adorable creatures during the daylight hours.

Giant Bunnies, are frequently available to pet or purchase in the gate building.  These are possibly the sweetest rabbits on earth!  And smart too.
