Snake zoo

Undated postcard featuring the Butantan Snake Zoo in Brazil.
This postcard have to be from the 30's or 40's. São Paulo was a smaller city at this time.

Not a Zoo any more, only a very small part is open to visitors. Working actually only with research: flu vaccines, antivenom injections, etc.

They have a nice collection including the very rare Bothrops insularis, Lachesis rhombeata, and all other venomous reptiles of Brasil.
