@Onychorhynchus coronatus I haven’t had access to the LAIR since February due to COVID but I know they had 2 in exhibit and a few more in small hatcheries to be sent out to other zoos so that could’ve changed by now. One of my favorite snake species!
@Julio C Castro Thank you for the information ! that is really interesting and encouraging to hear that they have had breeding success ! Lets hope they can be maintained by more zoos out there.
@Onychorhynchus coronatus the LA Zoo has great success with breeding reptiles and amphibians especially since the creation of the LAIR and the curator of amphibians and reptiles Ian Recchio knows how to run the department they literally have a wall of small hatcheries visible to the public and all are sent out, this snake species is a common one I see amongst other reptiles to be sent off
