Bluetongue skink

As usual, no UVB, no hotspot, no space to move. Somehow it managed to live here for 3 years.

      They are literally keeping it in a box!

      What do the keepers who work here think of these conditions?
    • Elephas Maximus
      Those 'keepers' obviously have virtually no education. Also I didn't observe any staff except cashiers and manager/guide.
      In previous visits, I have pointed out to the flaws of reptile husbandry, but they made no improvements (even didn't change the signage that presents Nile crocs as caimans!).
      Finally, I wrote negative comments in their questbook (which is read by owner at least).

      Officially, this is the worst oceanarium in Russia.

      Absolutely shocking. Fingers crossed your message at least gives the owner a prompt!
    There are no comments to display.
