21st October – Reptile Awareness Day.
Many people like to keeps reptiles as pets, from snakes to bearded dragons.
The reptile family is comprised of turtles, snakes, crocodilians (which include alligators), amphisbaenas (frogs, etc.), lizards, and tuataras (lizards from New Zealand who come from a different lineage to the rest of the world’s lizards).
Reptiles need a very specific environment, so just buying a snake and keeping it in a hamster cage is stupidity bordering on criminal.
Reptiles aren’t as fluffy as dogs, but can be just as loving.
Today is all about raising awareness of reptiles particular needs and trying to ensure that reptiles kept as pets receive the appropriate care.
