For the conservation and appreciation of Nature, to experience, observe, and relate to the creatures in their natural kingdoms. Enjoy their beauty. Snakes & Pythons are amazing reptiles whom we have so much to learn about them. To understand their nature and personalities. To appreciate the natural world we find our greatest individual worth. ~ thoughts for World Snake Day 2020
About Us
Serpentarium Wildlife Park Tasmania is an indoor reptile exhibit, presenting exotic captive bred reptiles. All our species recieve personal attention and the best in husbandry care as we totally love our reptiles.
The Serpentarium will provide a museum type display of feature reptile exhibits set within a wild and exciting themed environment. Main exhibit enclosures are themed in a naturalistic and eco-friendly custom habitat setting, housing the world's largest python species, displayed for fantastic public viewing, education and family experience.
