Around 50 years of reptile obsession by owners Ted and Heyward Clamp culminate in this serpentarium, which differs from most in that you can see snakes living in their natural habitats, separated from visitors by low-walled enclosures rather than glass. Alligators, lizards, turtles and crocodiles also call the outdoor serpentarium home. Think of it as a reptilian Disneyland.
