Central Australian Exhibit in the Reptile House

This exhibit is home to blue-tongue lizards and anopther type of desert dwelling lizard that I can't remember. It is pretty standard of the types of exhibits in the reptile house, although some are bigger and some are smaller, and they are all themed to show their inhabitant's native habitat.

Centralian blue-tongues and ridge-tailed monitors. I suspect the zoos' young inland bearded dragons could eventually end up in here too. Believe it or not, there are four blueys and either two or three ridge-taileds in this exhibit.

I should have put something in front of the exhibit to show how big it is because it is actually a really big exhibit for the lizards that live in it. Maybe about two metres wide but I am ridiculously terrible at estimates. Bearded dragons might might make a nice addition.

Based on the Bluey thats visible, I'd say more like 2.5 - 3m. Its certainly a decent size for them.

Yeah. The "believe it or not" was in reference to the hiding opportunities for the lizards. It could easily house shinglebacks and beardies as well.
