The Reptile Encounter features more than 20 reptile species in 17 purpose-built reptile exhibits with landscaping to match each animal’s natural habitat.
Opened on World Environment Day 1997, the Reptile Encounter invites visitors into the fascinating world of snakes, lizards and tortoises. It is fully air conditioned and displays some of Western Australia’s unique reptile fauna as well as some of the world’s more interesting snakes and lizards.
Don’t miss the Reticulated Python, one of the world’s largest snakes, or the deadly Dugite! Watch the Fijian Crested Iguana change colour from green to black.
There are daily reptile special presentations by our experienced keepers. This is the perfect opportunity to cure any phobias and answer your questions about snakes.
