A Day in the Life of Maintaining a Reptile Sanctuary

 

Speaker Information: The speaker for this month is Kalib Hoopingarner of the Divine Tortoise Sanctuary

His talk is titled: A Day in the Life of Maintaining a Reptile Sanctuary.

 

"Here at the sanctuary, we dedicate everything we have to giving these wonderful creatures a long, happy and naturalistic life. A rescue G. sulcata that had a less than perfect start to life is what jump started the idea to create a sanctuary where all reptiles would be able to come and live a long, happy life. Since the start of  the sanctuary, we have saved over 90 reptiles and that number is steadily climbing weekly.-Kalib"
