General View at Prague Terrarium, 26/08/12

I've been waiting to see pictures of this place since you mentioned the off-show species and I'm impressed with the three you've let us see!
But all in all what was the general feeling on this place? Is it worth a trip to visit if you have time to spare? That's not including the extra goodies that you got to see, just general collection.

The three 'good 'uns' were the bulk of the interest in the offshow areas we saw, but we saw nothing of the second floor of the building, where I suspect there are at least some additional holdings.

And yes, the display is perhaps best described as 'pet shop plus', but with 14 monitor species and a huge venomous snake collection among other things it's well worth a look if you have time (and a car - can only imagine it would be very difficult without).

Rules it out for me then!
But the 14 species of monitor and some of the off show stuff species would be great to see. How big is it? Because they seem to have crammed a lot of stuff into an apparently small space.

And no picture of the meerkat?

It's probably possible without a car - either by tackling the buses o by coughing up for a taxi - just depends how keen you are!

It's not very big at all - just a single floor of onshow displays over four rooms. But they do cram an awful lot in!

Oddly it wasn't my first priority!

Possibly not that keen with the zoo a lot easier to access, I think I'd probably have to spend at least 2 days at the zoo if possible!

But you say there's a second floor, surely they could expand upwards and cram yet more exciting rarities in...

Really? I'm shocked and stunned by that revelation!

Thing is, I suspect at least part of that second floor is crammed with more exciting rarities! They have a lot of off-show of which we only saw a small part, I'd say.

Now I'm even more intrigued! We need a man on the inside...
