My husband and daughter made a stop in. Could not believe how quickly they were done since they are very in to reptiles. Daughter is planning to work in field and we own 7 our selves. The enclosures were way to small for many of them.

Horrible conditions for the animals. Dirty tanks, turtles swimming in their own feces, overcrowded and too small enclosures, untreated eye and face injuries, etc. please avoid.

I honestly feel that the state in which the animals are found is deplorable, the crocodiles are in a very small space and are piled on top of each other, the government does nothing, knowing that wild animals must live in their natural habitat, Also see that they sell wild animals as if they were pets.
I don’t recommend ithis place

The zoo enclosures were overall bare but not the worst I've seen. Some better than others.
The alligators in the main tank seemed quite crowded but surprisingly in mostly good body condition. There's also only like 5 nameplates telling what species are. If I wasn't a reptile savvy person, I would have been so lost.
What was really alarming were the EXTREMELY OBESE snakes. Every single one of their snakes was easily double the size it should have been. Their albino reticulated python has damaged scales from them puckering under it's wrinkles. As well as most of these fat snakes had signs posted above them begging for more food. I Get that it's a tourist attraction but that's legitimate abuse to continue to overfeeding a snake in that condition.
I was also baffled to see baby American Alligators for sale. This is an Eight to Ten foot animal that has absolutely no business being able to be casually purchased at a tourist trap.
Just save your money and go to one of the attractions that doesn't harm living animals.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. They explained the optional feeding process and and made the experience fun. The reptiles were interesting and could be viewed up close (behind glass)--so this was very safe. We also could have our picture taken with a small alligator. It display was rather small, but just the right size to keep the attention of small children.

Horrible, and a waste of money. They treat the animals terrible. We went on a Monday and could not get a picture with an alligator because they were on break, didn’t tell us that before we paid.

This should be shut down its was distressing and disturbing and clearly animal abuse as well as financial rip off. All the reptiles are piled into tiny dirty enclosures with some plastic plants. No access to fresh air or sunlight, no escape from the kids pounding on the glass tanks. I spoke to the owners they said the animals are there for many years and made excuses about how well taken care of they were. I know something about reptiles and it is clear these animals are suffering. The alligators are piled on top of each other with no space to move fighting over tiny pieces of meat. The giant turtles can barely turn around. Then the advertise feeding with the live rodents.I understand of course this is what they eat in nature, but they, in front of little children, threw a little live white mouse into a tank of water, it was terrified and struggling to swim for some minutes before being eaten and the person in charged seemed to enjoy this, had a big smile on her face. It cost 55 dollars for 5 of us, we spent 5 minutes there. The website shows animal handling and interaction - that would have been another 15 dollars for a photo and we didn't want to do it when we saw how the animals were treated. It was a disgrace and I can't believe it is allowed to operate. In my country - Ireland - it would be shut down for abuse.

This place is always entertaining, and the gators keep getting fatter and fatter!

My brother's a big fan, and our nephew and nieces love the place!
