Indian River Reptile Zoo Indian River Reptile Zoo

Now that they have been in the pet store they say there were 4 large alligators, six crocodiles, tortoises, turtles and snakes. All but the tortoises will be going to Indian River Reptile Zoo. The tortoises will go to Magnetic Hill Zoo. Its estimated it will take 2 days to get all the animals out safely. These poor animals are very lucky to be going to new homes that will give them proper care and space. Too bad they werent seized before Noah and Connor had to pay the price.

More news is coming out on the animals being kept in the pet store. There are at least 27 different illegal species, some endangered being seized. 4 American alligators and 4 snakes have had to be euthanized because no zoo could take them. It really sounds like it was just a matter of time before someone was kill or injured at this place.

Visited this place last week..quite amazing collection considering EVERYTHING there is a confiscation or rescue and there is hardly a bearded dragon or Burmese Python to be seen.Was told it is the largest collection of venomous snakes in Canada and i can quite believe it...even got a "first" in the shape of Barnetts Lancehead(Bothrops barnetti).A decent place.
