I think both species can be pretty docile. When it comes to handling i personally try to avoid it which is why i have the removal perches which makes cleaning a dream. The snakes will tend stay on the perch and feel much more secure. I would like to do a video in the future comparing GTP vs ETBs. Personally I am a fan of ETBs too.

Thank you for the comment

How was it?

Hi Paul, I wish I could tell you but its been over a year and I have simply forgot however the guides are extremely knowledgeable and I would really just express to them how much you want to see them and they will point you in the right direction. Also some guides are more knowledgeable than others so don’t be afraid to ask around. I saw my Tuatara’s in the last 10 minutes before the ferry was leaving back to the mainland all because I asked one more guide if they had any spots! Good luck! Let me know if you see one :)

It depends where you are located, US or Canada. If you are in Canada there are some PVC companies that build them but they are fairly expensive when purchased brand new (400-700 CAD) I recommend searching around on facebook marketplace, craigslist or kijij you can normally score them for 200-300 CAD. These ones are 3ftx2ftx2ft. If I were to do it again I would prefer to keep my adult emeralds in 4ft long cages (4x2x2) just to give them a little more horizontal room. Cheers.

Yes they have both alligators and saltwater crocodiles. I showed off their big and very famous salty Elvis towards the end of the video.

Glad you like it

So awesome!

Thats awesome

I was just North of Sydney for the majority of this video! I was fully hoping to see one but it just wasn’t in the cards this time around!

@@ECO-logy ye the central coast is where the reptile park is just north of Sydney, where was the place you found the red belly? Im from that area lol

I think I got it wrong in the video. This was around the Blue Mountain NP and Katoomba

​@@ECO-logy at the beginning of the video when you spotted the red bellied black snake, where abouts where you? That wasn't Katoomba or the blue mountains.

Otters are awesome

@@ECO-logyI agree

I wish my friend! I was visiting New Zealand on a work trip from Canada. I just had to stop by and see the zoo, maybe if I get to come back one day.

Thank you my friend! Appreciate the comment :)

We use a variety of smelly baits that are great for increasing our chances of catching turtles.

Wow! You shared some real Auckland Zoo History! Thank you for the comment

Thats a great question! We are not too sure whats going on and thats part of the reason why I am here, to better understand why some turtles in the population are exhibiting cases of extreme growth in both body size and more importantly head size! Some turtles like the one in the video are huge with massive heads and others are completely normal and we need to figure out why!

Awesome job

Hell yeah!

Thank you my friend :)

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.

Thank you! It is a really nice zoo
