Summer Reading: Rainforest Reptile Shows

Rainforest Reptile Shows

Wednesday, July 15 at 1:00 PM

The program will consist of a miniature zoo with 10 -14 smaller animals in cages that participants can view and ask questions but are unable to handle. 

The rainforest reptile specialist will also introduce 4 larger animals (including an alligator) telling participants all about the animal being presented and answering any questions that they may have.  The program is designed to inspire young readers to dive into science through up-close animal encounters that inspire and build real world confidence.

Please note: Unfortunately Goose will not be attending!

No registration required.  All are welcome!

This program is sponsored in full by UniBank.

Rainforest Reptile Shows Summer Reading 2026

Rainforest Reptile Shows - Conservation through Education
Summer Reading Program

For over 32 years, Rainforest Reptile Shows has been bringing the wild to you by providing hands-on, immersive reptile experiences that educate, inspire, and entertain. We work with law enforcement, first responders, and educators to offer expert training and interactive learning, all while promoting ethical conservation with 100% rescued reptiles.

Founded in 1993, Rainforest Reptile Shows is a family owned business ran by husband and wife team, Joaney and Michael. Their passion for wildlife and mission to combat reptile mistreatment and misconceptions inspired them to establish Rainforest Reptile Shows.

What started as small educational outreach has grown into one of the nation’s leading reptile education programs, working alongside professionals to provide expert training and unforgettable encounters.
