    Why Reptiles

    Just wondered why everyone here is so into reptiles?
    and what they want to do.
    Uni Student.... I think that pretty much says everything

    i love nature, just the way i was bought up, i was also into lizards and snakes but got scared of them because of what people told me and an experience with a brown snake

    but after 6 months in the bush, most of the time out camping i just grew a love for snakes lizards and mountain biking.... in short i feel somewhat more complete when im near nature and animals, and i figure the more good people keeping snakes and teaching people about them, the better

    I grew up really scared of snakes because my mum was, and I was determined I didn't want my daughter growing up the same. I took her to ARP for a day, then I got hooked...

    I think you two need to do the citizenship test.

    I got a snake because a few friends of mine kept them and showed me how easy it is to get a licence and keep them. I couldn't have possibly chosen a better pet. Low maintenance, good wow factor and fascinating to watch.

    ahh k, well ive been interested in reptiles from a young age, small skinks etc.. when my mum found an injured bluey and i begged her to let me keep it, i fell in love from there. i felt bad about keeping the bluey and let it go afterwards but was hooked from there. that was 9 years ago, and i cant see a future without reptiles in my life
