Colorado Gators Reptile Park

SPRING FLING

20th & 21st

Colorado Gators Education Programs teach children and adults about the biology, behavior, and ecological role of reptiles in nature and at Colorado Gators. A variety of live specimens such as turtles, tortoises, gators, snakes, and lizards are presented in a hands-on learning experience. You'll learn which reptiles make good pets and which ones will eventually get big enough to eat your other pets. To schedule a program for your school or civic organization, call Sherri at 719-378-2612. You may also call this number to schedule a field trip. A discounted rate is available to large groups with one week notice.

These school children are introduced to "Doug", an African Sulcata Tortoise that outgrew his previous owner, like many of the animals at Colorado Gators. He's 50 pounds now, but may reach 250 pounds. The animals are used to educate the public through interactive school programs and field trips to Colorado Gators.

Jay Young presents "Dream" , an Albino Burmese Python from India. Although extremely rare in the wild, they are commonly bred in captivity for pets. He is very mild mannered, and has been petted by thousands of people. Females of this species may reach 25+ feet, and can be more agressive.
