Every 2nd Sunday of the month, inside of the brand new, permanent, live reptile exhibit at Jurassic Gardens, our friends from Scale World Order will be performing an interactive, educational and entertaining reptile meet and greet!
The experience will happen with 2 shows at 12pm & 3pm and is FREE with paid admission to Jurassic Gardens or with Volo Museum's Gold and Platinum passes.
Meet reptiles like tortoises, pythons, a tegu lizard, anaconda, pixie frog, paradise flying snake, mata mata turtle, alligator snapping turtle, monitors and many others you won’t see anywhere else!
Scale World order is a local organization for education, rehabilitation and dedication to wildlife and we are proud to have their expertise, passion and scaly friends at Jurassic Gardens!
Though our team is professionally trained, and the reptiles are used to being handled by the public, all guests will enjoy the show at their own risk. Scale World Order and Jurassic Gardens will not be responsible for any unforeseen incidents
