EspañolREPTILIA (ZOO)
Reptilia is Canada's largest reptile zoo, with 15,000 square feet of exhibits.
It is also the home of Canada's largest crocodile, Induna, who is 14 feet long, and weighs over 1000 pounds.
Participants learn how alligators and crocodiles hide themselves in the water. Here we see the small above-water portion of the reptile well camouflaged, though also reflected in the water.

Live reptiles are used in hands-on teaching.
During a live reptile show, volunteers from the audience are requested to assist in the handling of a 5-meter (approx. 16 and a half feet) long female Burm.
Audience members have the opportunity to interact with reptiles, such as this female Burm, up close.
