THE BEST FRIENDS ARE COLD-BLOODED

Option 1: We can put together a presentation tailored specifically to the material that is being covered in a course along with an overview on the animals we bring with us which would include a mix of reptiles both related to the topic and those that are more exotic and reserved for mature audiences. If time allows or it is requested, we will build in time for handling and interaction after the presentation. The length of the presentation can be altered based on time allowed.


Option 2: We will provide a short presentation about our mission as a rescue and then give an overview of the reptile representatives and more exotic species that we brought with us and allow time for handling and interaction with the remainder of the time. The length of the presentation can be altered based on time allowed.​
