Reptiles & Amphibians at Wild Days
Though not the most abundant, Wild Days often receives reptiles into care. The most common visitors are the Eastern Blue tongue lizard and the Blotched Blue tongue lizard, usually the victims of dog attacks. Some however are the unfortunate victims of a lawnmower or whipper snipper on a Sunday morning.
These injuries, while severe, are often ones these amazing animals can survive and heal completely from, regrowing scales and shedding abilities, to be fit for release. The only difference with these tough animals, is that they do it at a very slow pace.
