The zoo does a multi-media show about reptiles and a live lecture demonstration. The facility also conducts informative tours about how a modern animal care facility is run and teaches daily routines, animal husbandry, and venomous snake handling procedures.[4]
The 6,500 square feet (600 m2) Reptile and Amphibian Gallery houses over 40 species of snakes in naturalistic habitats. In the summer, tortoises and aquatic turtles live outdoors in the gardens.[2] In addition to on-site exhibitions, the zoo does traveling exhibitions, shown at museums, science centers, and zoos.[5]
Reptiland also includes non-reptile species in their exhibits, such as their avian walk-through exhibit, 'Parakeet Landing', in which visitors may hand feed budgies after purchasing a seed stick.[6]
