Cue goes to Cameron Park Zoo

So today I went to the Cameron Park Zoo in Waco Texas. It was a perfect day for it, 82 degrees and not a cloud in the sky! My focus is not so much the reptiles in this thread but more of the displays. They have done a wonderful job with the "natural" feel and look of the Reptile House.

I hope you enjoy :snake:

You got that right platty cakes :rolleye2:

When they designed it back in the late 90s I was lucky enough to be invited to see the progress and offer input. Really cutting edge stuff back then. They used recycled tire material for the flooring that offers an earthy feel :gj:

Just go on a zoo world tour and make a picture book with some info or something. That'd be pretty sweet!
