Right next to the Bali Bird Park (see Bali Bird Park visit [Bali Bird Park]) is the Reptile Park which is entered on the same ticket (so no need to pay again). This was actually better than expected and also more extensive than expected. Most of the animals were in good-sized terrariums or pens, only occasionally did I think critically of the space certain animals had. I counted 48 species held here, the bulk of which were smaller species inside a winding reptile house. There were some unexpected species here (in-as-much as I thought I’d just be seeing Asian reptiles) such as Gila monster, taipan, sungazers, Madagascar tree boa and Californian kingsnakes.

I have photos of many species and cages but I can’t upload any at this time because of time restraints, so that will have to wait till I’m back in NZ in November. I also made as complete lists as I could of all the species in both the Bird and Reptile Parks, because I know people on here always like to ask for lists, but again I’ll have to post those when back in NZ (the Bird Park list is about 120 species long)
