David has been talking about reptiles for several weeks now. Of all animals, he claims that lizards, especially Chameleons, are his favorite. My neighbor told us about a place called Prehistoric Pets, which has a reptile petting zoo. You can pretty much ask to hold anything and they'll give it to you for as long as you want. This is David's first experience holding a snake.
When we told the employee about David's love for Chameleons, she took us into a side room and gave him special permission to hold this little guy. I have to admit, he was pretty darn cute.
How about a giant lizard for a pet? We were all a little leary about getting too close to this big guy. He was pretty smelly, too.
Okay, this is a mammoth snake- 350 lbs and no, they don't let you hold this one. James, by the way, was the first one to jump in the car when I mentioned a reptile zoo. Once we got there, he kept himself at a safe distance from everything, no matter how much I coaxed.
