Kudos. Part of the reason I grew up to love reptiles so much was because one of my 4 sixth grade teachers. He had garter snakes, a king snake, newts, salamanders, birds, a bearded dragon, a hedgehog, rats, turtles, and an electric catfish. I remember that the albino cali kingsnake was my favorite.
I love programs like this because it gives kids the option to grow up and be a reptile fan instead of adults choosing that fate for them.
