OK, so I was at Kew Gardens today, and in one of the glasshouses (the Princess of Wales Conservatory) unexpectedly saw a Water Dragon Lizard in the desert area (Kew website doesn't give species, but most likely Physignathus cocincinus). Reading up they are kept there as natural pest-control. My question is, can I count this towards my total? Kew isn't a zoo, but it does have a small aquarium in the Palm House basement, similar to the aquarium at the Horniman Museum, which would count. But, the lizard was in one of the plant conservatories, so not technically a display animal, but is definitely a captive exotic. So, a nice conundrum for our adjudicator :)

This is a really tough conundrum (damn you, in the sweetest way). I'm flip-flopping on how to conclude, where's Micheal Buerk when you need him?

I think I'm concluding it's not counting, primarily because it's not a display animal. Other factor's pushing this conclusion are that the Kew Gardens is not really an animal exhibit, also they're not on Zootierliste and don't have a zoo licence. Plus as stated before, "things are complex enough already".

You don't know how close you were to getting a whimsical one off let-in exemption for raising such a fiddly, challenging, dilemma (but in the end I couldn't because it would be throwing logic/fairness out the window:)).
 
Once I have finished having a long lie down in a darkened room after todays visit to Twycross I will be adding a few more,to my challenge total including 1 retro addition after checking that it is correct.I still think that reaching over 300 could be well beyond what I can now reach with the places I have visited over the last few days!!

Nicely explained Shorts, thank you :) Even though it doesn't count towards the total, knowing that I came close to getting a whimsical exemption more than makes up for it :)

how are you getting around the UK? Buses and trains? Or Zoochatter's cars?

He's been using primarily the latter two options, though I think he may end up using the first option once or twice too.

Well he is out of the last option now and over to the first 2,cannot wait to see what his final total is,as he was still picking the odd one up at Twycross,he could even have a few retro adds from some places if I ever work them out!

Fairly pointless adding this but at the 3Rd attempt at Colchester 7/8/16
168 Phillipine Sailfin Lizard

At a real stretch I may get somewhere near 200, but I won't compete with the leader(s)

Don't count yourself out yet, I'm only going to a handful of more collections and don't think many are too good for reptiles.

However, when I get around to it I will be seeing you on the ungulate challenge;)

So much to my surprise at long last I have passed the 250 mark,I would also like to suggest that a certain American migrant check what I have listed as he my find that he missed something from stuff that he has all ready posted!!!

I have also added a few more sub-species as letters after the first of the type I saw!
 
Just adding a few reptiles from my trip yesterday to Van Hagues/Ventura Wildlife Gardens, but am having trouble IDing the Blue-Tongued Skink from the Animal Encounter at Ventura. Have attached a photo if anyone can help please!

So a few closer to the 300 mark which I think is going to be beyond everyone including myself.I will over the next week or 2 sit down and work out what is leading in the multiple collections seen scoreboard.Added yet a few more sub-species which don't count but as per normal I have added them as a sub letter of the number of the first of the family I saw.

Quick question (and to Pipaluk too).

Though it's probably all rather academic at the stage, I was wondering what the set up is at Van Hage Garden Centre? I'm trying to decide whether it would count for the challenge as garden centres generally wouldn't.
 
It's a little area with lots of enclosures for exotics, located at the back of the garden centre, which is free to enter. Other species in this area include the usual things - coatis, meerkats, marmosets, golden pheasants, the reptiles, some owls, skunks, and a few domestics like pygmy goats, ferrets, degu, cockatiels, budgies, chickens etc.
